You have to learn it anyway, so it's easier to learn about something that you desire, rather than learn about something that the media or others say is "hot".I've been working on a speech about wealth building success that starts with a "startling" title to grab attention - "Diversification is for Suckers".The gist of the talk is that the richest people throughout history made their first fortune from one company.

No diversification.

One of the biggest advantges that is rarely mentioned on biggerpockets is the diversification of assets that a real estate IRA allows you and is the main reason I did it.

With the obvious stated, Diversification can lead one into areas that you may not be familiar with.

Diversification here is not your friend.Jeff

The old deworsification argument without taking into account quality and control.Obviously this wasnt a lending discussion.... the spelling is diversification by the way.

If you're looking for some diversification (I'm not sure how many properties you own) You may look into utilizing a 1031 to sell one here, and purchase multiple in a higher cash flow (lower appreciation ) area. 

Single family and small multis are totally blown out in price in most areas and you are likely set for bigger steps than that anyways.There is also something to be said about area diversification as well.

I prefer diversification.

I talked to my financial planner about getting another property in Auburn, AL (my "real" home and where I have 3 properties), but he said I needed to find another city for diversification.
