I am a LTR owner, getting ready to move into the STR game.

Looking to upgrade my game and speed is of the essence.

If I could rewind 7 years, I would’ve personally scooped up another property near downtown...prices were more forgiving back then.All that said, I’m curious..if you were getting back in the game today, would a condo with strong amenities but an unpredictable HOA top your list, or are you eyeing single-families for that full control?

Use next 4-6 months to learn by listening, reading and watching how the real estate investment game works.

In my case I was lucky that I still kept half of my portfolio, so didn’t get out of the RE game altogether.

I don't know what the issue is/was, but I think a lot of customers want to play games and he probably did his best to keep them on the straight and narrow. 

I guess it’s just a waiting game from here on out.

If you’re looking to build long term wealth, accumulate assets, take advantage of tax code, and benefit from appreciation, then play the appreciation long game.

My experience has been that purchase transactions where the buyer has no or little skin on the game have a default rate many times that of buyers who place a significant down payment into the deal.
