Not sure if they are building more fab plants . 

Even if US gets a much-needed recession to finally break the inflation, that doesn't mean residential/multi-family will suffer, as there are still long-standing supply constraints which will take years to address.

If you continue down the BRRRR path you will suffer a short term loss (short is relative of course) but if the property cash flows it will eventually make you whole.

My huge issue with these guys (and Wealthability) is the business formula appears to be the following:Master guru sucks you in with their knowledge via books, podcasts, Youtube, seminar.Master guru tries to hire minions to re-create his success (it underdelivers)Master guru tries to scale too fast and becomes more of a salesman (clients further suffer)I am interested in learning more about this and can deal with negative reviews but the negative ones outweigh the positive ones online for Anderson and in 2023 no less, so this is an active problem. 

@Michael Plante it's good to hear your friend is successful - I feel like it's all about the numbers - I think I have identified a piece of property about 1.25 acres for under $300k.

If not and you're weary of dealing with this business you can always inform him you will begin advertising for a new tenant (which, of course, means there will be showings of the unit) and once a qualified replacement is found, his lease can be terminated.Sometimes when a tenant realizes there will be folks tromping through their place the bathroom "odor" suddenly evaporates.While you should not have to suffer loss of rent over all of this, life is too short to keep dealing with this nonsense.

The max Uncle Sam allows is 50k if you haven't taken a TSP loan in the last year.I've seen both good and bad experiences with this but at the end of the day it's no different from any other type of loan, you are just your own bank in a sense.The downside or risk is that you lose your job, your property isn't cash flowing, are unable to pay back the loan, and your retirement account suffers since the loan essentially turns into a withdrawal.The upside or best case is you have the loan for less than a year, your BRRRR pays off the loan, and you pay yourself interest 5% interest.The opportunity cost is if the stock market goes up 20% and you were only paying yourself 5% interest you'll miss out on the excess returns. 

The examples you gave were also EXCELLENT because the investors who you say are suffering from changes affecting real estate CHOSE to be there.

So the loss due to Clayton County malfeasance was about 15 times what you'd have suffered in a county not Clayton, Dekalb, Fulton, or maybe Cobb, correct?

But have you considered that you possibly could be suffering from tunnel vision?
