Quote from @Olga Daisel: @Dan ZambranoHow is your stock trading?

And they are not working for pennies—many are earning $40 an hour or more in skilled trades like construction, landscaping, and specialized farming."

There are multiple billions of dollars traded every day.

Just say no.I would almost never do this trade unless all my downside, including potential unknowns, were completely compensated for. 

Southbridge and Webster are cheaper as well.There will be obvious trade-offs in terms of location / amenities and price but i have seen good traction in all of the aforementioned locations.I'm looking for househacks for clients around central Mass and while they're not impossible to find by any means units in Worcester are typically trading at $225-250.

Have recently started a renovation company with a friend, both of us successful business owners and talented in the trades.

My other background for 15 years now is in the trading world.

I know commercial property acquisitions and trades are slow right now for a variety of reasons, definitely making it a harder entry for a no-experience salesperson, and I also have my doubts that many would be interested in my resume when none of it relates to the real estate industry.

They are simply trading one thing for another.

It was a true trade-off as the Logan area is more limited in STRs and new builds so ADRs are higher and likely to stay there compared to RRG where the market is headed towards being flooded and there's the potential of ADRs going down like in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area.
