Selling on amazon (FBA) has been fruitful, but requires some capital and time. 

I can see that, but really its more like not putting all my eggs in one basket and buying a lot of baskets...  

For products catering to the middle/upper-middle class, you're not going to find such low-hanging fruit in any major market. 

It has been often suggested here and elsewhere to pursue something that keeps a toe in the water of the working world, as it limits the downside risks, and could turn into a fruitful enterprise for post-retirement.At the request of a friend and BP associate, I've been asked to provide expert opinion and electrical analysis on residential properties that are either on the market, or recently sold through his brokerage, as there are many customers who want a deeper look at their electrical system, deeper than what a typical home inspector will do, but they are not ready to ask a contractor to come out and simply give a blank check to 'fix whatever's wrong' (famous last words).

I think all your eggs in the cash flow basket is very risky if you can not get the investments rented for a period of time, or your property manager is no good at best, and steals your money at worst.

would like some feedback for those that have knowledge on the north providence market. possibly looking to get into this market and would like some feedback on that alreday in it . i am looking at the fruit hill area . pros and cons would be great thanks 

Everyone is going towards the low hanging fruit (which I get), so I'll stay back and increase my hustle for my desired deal flow.

Tty to use local products to fill the basket.

We all seek wealth for different reasons and no one on this post grew up in the middle of the Great Depression, so passing finding flaws in someone who accumulated a net worth an order of magnitude above their peers may not prove too fruitful.

Hello Dennis Williams I think the previous posts about having high efficiency appliances and storage are huge value adds for a multifamily unit.I think partnering with local businesses to showcase a sense of community could be an interesting way to leverage the common areas, such as fruit markets, coffee tastings, or other communal activities.
