I liken it to Officer and A Gentleman quote "I will do all things fair and unfair to trip you up". 

Our last trip thru the country side the corn was short and lots of weeds in the farmland since they were doing Bio or organic.

Don't trip up over pennies on the way to be a millionaire.

My goal is to start learning and hope to buy my second (we own our current home) property within the year to start my real estate investment journeyI got interested in Real Estate investing because I want to be able to have a large family and give them everything they need (college tuition, family trips, emergency fund) and want to grow a portfolio with constant cash flow to allow for these things. 

I've taken few trips back to Virginia in past few month and I met tens of people in the REI field.

Hi Sandra - It might be worth it to make a trip to one of those meetups.

And yes a trip to the market and or other prudent up front due diligence would have saved most all of these folks.. but they simply did not do that.. 

Most likely the state where the property is located is where lawsuits would be brought if they are something for personal injury like a trip and fall or something of that nature because the “cause of action” arose in that state.
