Then, when it falls apart be waiting on the sidelines with cash in hand.

I've been around the business but in the past I tended to sit on the sidelines, content with my current 9-5. 

Anyway, I have been sitting on the sidelines listening to podcast, reading posts by others, dreaming up rental property developments on parcels of land for sale in my city area, watching flipping shows on TV.

I'm from Utah, and I've been interested in real estate for a few years, and I just got tired of siting on the side lines.

game you'll spend your entire life on the sidelines.

I think PSJ makes an attractive rental and flip market, but I'm on the sidelines a bit since I'm not in the area right now and after picking up homes in the $50-60k range, I'm not super thrilled to buy at $90k+ when they still need $10k in rehab and rent for ~$1100. 

So far for 2016 we have been working on getting more income from current properties and sitting on the sideline in terms of acquisitions.  

Congratulations Matt on getting off the sidelines and for not being afraid to fail your way to success.

If you want a 12 CAP, then you're going to have to look in rougher neighborhoods or sit on the sidelines for a LONG time.  

If any of us waited until we knew EVERYTHING then we'd all be sitting on the sidelines.
