Its not going to happen over night for anyone starting out but it can happen.I think there is just a little too much doom and gloom in this thread (again, it could be a reflection of the time when the thread was started).Just my 2 cents, that and a 5 dollar bill will get you a cup of joe.

It is wedged between the Duwamish river and the bluff below highland park / white center to east and west,   and industrial SODO to the north and the northeast corner of Burien to the south.SP has a lot of comparatively lower income residents vs. seattle at large,  and its a very diverse neighborhood;   If you speak spanish it would be a big advantage if you are looking at managing MF in that area.   

If you were to approach and have a cup of coffee and chat and be real and just say your not comfortable with the cost not cash flowing would they let you buy it for $xxx... you may be surprised at the response..  

Would like to meet up and have a cup of coffee or lunch.

Turn it into a listings directory and add more Spanish content geared towards land sellers.

If anyone would like to network, brainstorm, divulge words of wisdom, or simply enjoy a good cup 'a' joe, hit me up! 

If you are near Seattle there might even be a cup of coffee in it for you. 

If you're in the area and have the time, I'd love to buy you a cup of coffee (or a beer) and pick your brain.Thanks,-Sean

I also can teach you Spanish or Japanese.

I'd be happy to meet with you one day to discuss the SoCal investing market over a cup of coffee...let me know when you're available and we can set something up.
