I saw someone post in a group who I think is a schmuck brag about hitting a specific figure for their training and I just shook my head - like wow - this person is a great sales person and just steals the same lines from the business book about working hard and throwing out some slick slogans - but man oh man - when real estate gets hard people move to being a guru - just look at FB ads right now - many are not funds anymore but how to raise money, how to do X.

Overall great macroeconomics great for investment - there's the booming tech scene, rapid growth in population and the job market, strong rental demand, and landlord-friendly laws.

Hey EvanI prefer hands off but I know that 2 heads are better than one.

It hits every nail on the head and I see it everyday where everyone acts like sheep and just follows the herd because some guru told them too.

You won't understand something and need it beaten into your head ten times.

I recently financed three new builds in the Jasper area near Big Canoe and I'll be heading up with my family shortly after Christmas for a "tour".

Headed down for 9 days.  

To me it seems the properties will be in rough areas which has higher turnover costs, barely any appreciation and a head ache.

The economy is rapidly growing so we see both cash flow and appreciation potential here.

NWA is rapidly expanding, it's mind-blowing.
