How do you identify emerging markets before they become over saturated?

New construction requirements are for the sole purpose of keeping the trades working, elec, plumbing, mech, siding.

Ask yourself if you’re confident you can achieve a higher return by putting that money into another property or investment.Reserves: Do you have a strong emergency fund?

Somehow I think it's better to hold onto my own money and keep that dry powder on the sidelines waiting to get into the game if there are some emergency expenditures (haha, very likely with the kinds of deals I'm thinking about in class C neighborhoods).

I also have a $50k line of credit I can tap into when needed that will grow as I keep growing the business.Right now my rent is about $1700 where I've been staying for over a year, but really wanting to trade that for a mortgage and start building that equity.

I want a specialist that's an expert, and not a jack of all trades and master of none.

You may see if you have one in your area that you could trade your property into something nicer. 

Begin with a small property like a duplex or triplex, build a strong financial foundation, and keep 6-12 months of reserves for emergencies.

The maximum leverage I have ever seen in trading accounts is 50%, and that's very limited and select.

I saved up the down payment for a few months and have a few remaining as emergency funds.
