I'm particularly passionate about Chattanooga, TN, Blue Ridge, GA, Charlotte, NC, Winston-Salem, NC and possibly Florida.Outside of real estate, I enjoy photography, marketing, outdoors and health optimization.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

@Troy GandeeYou make a great point, and this sometimes is where people get stuck - in many instances people rely on their interpretation or opinion of things - but In reality if you are the only person or minority who holds that opinion and everyone you need to do business with has a different opinion - you can argue till your blue in the face but if everyone around you who you need to close a transaction will not do it, does it matter what your opinion is?

Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red are A, B, C, D, and F, respectively.

There's a large presence of blue collar workers with a strong rental demand.

Ohio is red, PA is blue....The answer is clear where you'll be better off investing.

Have you read the book Blue Ocean? 

The 232 seems a little low for a popular place like Blue Ridge but not crazy.

This period of warmer temps (which is technically not even completely true depending where, how, and who you choose to get your data) has happened before and will happen again.Still, if you enjoy cool. wet weather and Blue politics I imagine that Oregon would be a splendid place to invest.

YES, seller(s) can, if they choose, say ONLY persons wearing BLUE may enter home for showings, and will ONLY review offers written in green ink.

Next time you talk to the renter that's paying late all the time, Maybe mentioned to him or her without getting too involved in their personal life, they should seek out a temporary job a few hours, a couple of days a week until they build up enough to get caught up on the rent, and make a little pool of money to use so they don't get behind again.Some Temporary jobs can be fun, like handing out rubber id bracelets at functions to the participants, or if the person is more blue collar they have jobs for those people too more suited to their tastes. just my 2 cents.
