Markets are like playing fields. 

@Nathan Pethers recommend you use the BiggerPockets Agent & PMC lookup features since +95% of agents CLAIM they can work with an investor, but actually only know how to do owner-occupied transactions.Your PMC and agent should work together, on your behalf so make sure they play nice:)

I’m a Golf instructor, I play guitar.

I have the appreciation play / minimal cash flow in Texas right now, so the Akron plan is to maximize steady cash flow.

Once you see people just like yourself doing deals you will gain the confidence and stop playing computer real estate and get out in the field.

If over leveraged in R.E. yup, gonna get zingged, exact same as if were playing with leverage on stocks as one WOULD get a margin call exactly the same.     

Bonus hot tip!

Decide which game you want to play.

Agreed, the deals are always to be had if one looks hard enough and know's the game.Don't hate the player, hate the game if you don't know how to play it hehe
