I put little though into those I reject and prefer to concentrate/agonise over those I accept. 

Concentrate on saving as much money as you possible can by living a frugal life style.

Historically, this area has had a supply demand imbalance and with the continued tech concentration, I don't see that diminishing anytime soon.

If you are just getting started with limited cash, I would concentrate on learning these alternative methods.

I would concentrate on building your network of real estate agents and other investors.

But I read that the boom is occurring almost exclusively east of the tracks and is very concentrated, hence the rise in median prices.

Buying an investment property in a building that has an investor concentration of higher than 30% of the units is a major no-no.

The investor concentration is to high for Fannie/Freddie guidelines.

@Edward OchanasHello Edward Ochanas,The Company’s books and records are available to you and all investors and are prepared and reviewed twice a year by Van Duyne & Bruno CPAs - a specialist regional certified public accounting firm with a real estate specialty practice and concentration.

A lot will depend on what type of real estate you want to become involved with; rentals, flips, wholesaling, brrr, singles, multi-family, commercial, etc.Here are a few suggestions:  (especially for singles and small multi-family)  concentrate on the best school district, get the worst house on a great block, stop your car and get our and actually speak to people working on their yard or just sitting on their porch, eat at a local mom/pop coffee shop--sit at the counter and speak to the waitress and customers.
