Questions: Should I sell (A) and realise the appreciation before a bear hits?

Most experienced investors realise that having cash gives you an "opportunity" to increase your investments by spreading it around.Investors generally value cash at a 10% return or higher.

I have also realised the power of credit and how to control myself and utilise multiple cards.  

I ended the conversation with the seller once I realised that I didn't know what questions I needed to ask and am looking to fill in the blanks.

I realise there are gajillions of RE-related books out there, many of which will be repetitious factually, so I really do appreciate a recommendation.

With cash flow you must wait however many months for the cash flow to build up to be anywhere near as much as the amount you would’ve earned from realising all of your equity?

Once the court cases started she realised she would lose and caved in.  

Also you will never realise the entire $2500.....you will always have expenses.If you have cash invest it do not bury it in a rental property.

I look for opportunities in markets that are flat  or that have a clearly defined upside and realise the gains at the appropriate time.I hope we can connect once I get all of my processes in order in the next couple of months.

I realise i am an outsider and local renters will probably not be willing to help , its the same here in the UK.
