That was low hanging fruit.

I spent about a decade working my *** off, getting ahead, and now I'm enjoying the fruit of those labors.Here's my two cents: don't buy a condo.

We moved from the Memphis area to Hong Kong two years ago but non RE relationships blossomed into investment opportunities that will likely continue to bear fruit in the future. 

Growing a high yield fruit tree is different from harvesting it.

Utah is ground zero for back end fullfillment companies.. so this is not new or shocking to many of us in the KNOW.Just another guru selling rehash information promising the moon and drowning their clients in futures.Sorry this happened to you.. however the systemic problem I see is that folks for some reason think they can buy their way into the real estate business.. which simply can't happen.. and it really depends on your market if your trying to do this in CA.. then thats a tough one right there.. and the markets have shifted dramatically in the last 36 months so there just is not the amount of distressed inventory out there or low hanging fruit like there was 8 to 10 years ago.as stated above just let the public know on social media.

People do much more damage than little rat dogs etc... crayons on walls, cracked windows, smoking, fruit punch stains on carpets, holes in walls, disgusting bathrooms and kitchens are all caused by the people not their pets.Then, when it comes time to renew their lease, my little $20.00-$25.00 nuisance increase is not a big deal.  

If you want ripe low-hanging fruit of many kinds, at least in relation to Seattle, this is where you'll find it. 

We spent around $43,000 in repairs, around $7000 in holding cost, around $10,000 in closing cost and around $13,000 for agent fees (agent fees should be less as I am the listing agent).

We are just finishing up the final three units, so hopefully the decision to go with 5 versus 4 units will bear fruit with future appraisals. 

This combination of factors makes Columbus and its suburbs a compelling choice for real estate investors seeking a fruitful out-of-state investment opportunity.
