Quote from @Abass Aden: I’m relatively new to the real estate industry, having recently shifted my focus to wholesaling.

But you have to be very creative and understand that if you're seeing deals from industry professionals (rather than sourcing them yourself), there's probably not enough meat left on the bone for a good opportunity to create value.Good luck!

If you have any questions or are looking to just connect with others in the industry, don't hesitate to post! 

If you want appreciation, identify markets with expanding industries, positive growth trends, and bright economic forecasts.Columbus, Ohio is a great market to consider if you're looking for appreciation markets that still cash flow.

That's pretty industry standard. 

Look James, to put this another way, Short-Term Rental industry destroys you're entire argument!

Where these numbers are found, there is a very high rate of rent actually being paid.We have over a dozen Fortune 500 companies just in Metro Detroit with huge Healthcare, Auto, and mortgage industry National footprints.

All this is why, I believe, it's a rare thing in the REI industry. 

Happy Holidays BP Family - I'm currently working on a seller financed industrial deal, asset on the smaller end (~10ksf).

Did a ride along yesterday with a friend who does industrial, SFH and MFH.
