As you discover opportunities, continue looking for the longer play!

I would only consider Decatur for a cash flow play, not an appreciation play.  

It blows my mind that you can actually start and operate a legitimate business in the US without telling the government (not the public) the name and address of the owner.

@Brady Ascheman To make the decision strictly from a Property Management standpoint you have to calculate your vacancy cost and cost to acquire a new tenant to know if a rental increase is even a smart play. 

If first time home buyers are having a difficult time coming up with the funds for even the costs to play as a first time home buyer then are the non profits supposed to pay the buyers agent commission too? 

Not a single one of the properties I was under contract for made any sense once the massive price increases were put in play.

Depending on what you want to do and what role you want to play, would depend on how you should go about it. =)

We're probably not going to take the risk if we're busy agents to play that game. 

I think new investors who post here and take all the feedback as a whole, with a grain of salt, can really put it into play in real life and then discuss with investors at meetups in their area to get over the hump.

I want to play the long game.
