I think right now there’s a lot of greedy sellers who just think the sky is the limit and don’t care that their buyers need a return on their money.

They have the cash, but not the knowledge and/or time to find, analyze, setup and manage the deal(s), so don't sell yourself short...but don't get greedy either.  

Good time to be an investor with cash in my opinion, but you have to be the type of person who is greedy when others are fearful.

@Adam Eckhoff I personally prefer real estate over stocks because it gives a quicker return on cash in your pocket (unless you are a skilled day trader/options trader).

Sounds like some are just being greedy, or just plain don't understand the value of working with an investor who will buy 10x as many properties each year than a retail buyer, not to mention that they are getting paid on two transactions for working only one.

Make sure they are not greedy.

Also seems like they like to stick on wealth taxes for rich greedy landlords and investors.
