I've flown down and walked the units at Western Way and there is a lot to be desired.

So that has a lot to do with it.  

Quote from @Katie Southard: Quote from @Aaron Zimmerman: @Katie Southard - there's a lot to unpack here. 

There is a lot to go into it and recommend BP and youtube to learn more about the industry. 

Instead, he insulted my profession as an ortho surgeon which indicates to me I was right about his videos. 

I have a lot to learn on this side until then but am looking at buying a value add multifamily rather than residential.

Quote from @Alexandra Helms: @Dziko ThundeHere is a video published by a local agent (though I believe he actually moved out of the area) a couple of years ago that you might find helpful - "https://youtu.be/LPNIl_vLkWc?

His videos are definitions that you can find on Google or the dictionary.  

I think they contain solid information and will help lay a good foundation as a beginner (Haha, I'm completely new to real estate as well, btw)I'm also going to be reading the following books, and hopefully I can finish all by the end of this month:1) The ABCs of Property Management2) The Advanced Guide to Real Estate Investing3) Long-Distance Real Estate Investing How to Buy, Rehab, and Manage Out-of-State Rental Properties (this might be the most important one to me personally)4) The Book on Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money DownIn addition to reading, I'm consuming crazy amounts of youtube videos, and I'recommend you do this as well.

Quote from @Evan Polaski: Interesting seeing this post and Justin's recent appearance on the Jonathan Greene podcast/YouTube video from a day ago."
