(Low hanging fruit).

It took me over a year and a half of religiously posting on BP to see the fruits of my labor significantly pay off.

Butler and Hosch appears to have grown too big too fast and when the foreclosure market dipped, they really dipped as they seemed to have had all of their eggs in that one basket, the foreclosure market.

You never know which conversations will be fruitful or not.  

If I were you and super happy I’d even give them a bonus or send a nice basket of goodies to their office come holidays!

For that reason I'd suggest not putting all of your eggs in one basket, put down a decent down payment, but keep enough money for emergencies/PCS's.

I know investors that approach the MLS and real estate agents and use the strategy of "Wholesaling Lease Options" on properties with sellers who want full market price.Going after MLS properties and For Sale By Owner is the "low hanging fruit" of real estate investing.

I eventually need to invest outside the Galveston market so not all my eggs are in one basket!

My husband and I completed our first flip and sold it in March 2018, but are now acquiring rental properties, and we have employed  a couple different strategies so that all of our money eggs aren't coming out of one basket...if that makes sense.
