@Christopher Madden did you get in touch with Mindy for us to get the forum?

@Michael Fundaro.... yeah, if you shook some of the cube farmers and ask them to "wake up", they'd just look at you funny....and rightly so.Some people choose life paths that are more laid out and predictable. 

Folks using 2008 as a mirror of what can /did happen is a mistake.Mainly because 2008 crash was from massive amount of bad mortgage loans/fraud that shook the foundations of huge wall street banks that had bad investments i.e. mortgage /insurance Derivatives on such loans around the world it spread like the flu of 1918 around the world.I just don’t see the real-estate getting slammed like that again the loans on the books mostly are solid loans.Still a great demand for homes here below 300k, builders not keeping up or not wanting to keep up?

So - I've been in Phoenix MSA for about 7 months now. I feel like I have a grasp on the market. My wife, @Patrisha Leybovich is an agent with Keller here, and she is pretty sharp.Wholesalers are absolutely ridiculous ...

Because it is maddeningly complicated. 

I shook the broker's hand, brought a gift, we spoke and I left.

Hello @Christa Shook and welcome to Bigger Pockets.
