Active real estate investors who can't get comfortable not being in the driver's seat, people who just don't like real estate as an investment, those who can't get comfortable with the risks, those who just don't understand syndicate investments, those who have heard bad things about this type of investing from others, and people who have invested in syndicates and experienced bad results.

For me personally, I consider it a B neighborhood because it's walking distance to so many amenities, and I felt mostly safe raising my family there, but not everyone is comfortable living in a developing area.Last year (2024), we moved out of the home and converted it into a rental.

It depends on what you are comfortable doing. 

But I now have the right parameters to feel comfortable doing this.  

In the meantime watch the BP podcasts and use the BP calculator to start analyzing deals so you get comfortable with the numbers.By this time next year I would say if you do this you'll have 10k in a bank account with an ok credit which should make you eligible for an FHA loan to buy (1-4 Units) with 3.5% down and get you started. 

I think I'm speaking for myself in terms of a price point that I'm personally not comfortable with over there since it is not in my own buy box yet. 

Are you comfortable with the hefty $40,000 bill?

I would be comfortable to some degree as this would just be a saving plan of sorts.

I have been listening to the podcasts and reading some of the books and am excited to finally feel comfortable enough in my vision to post here. 

I suggested to them we could split the costs 50/50 of installing the electric, the garbage disposal, and the labor for installing it as I would be more comfortable having my guy do it.
