Kind of epic.

@James Kojo - extra Kudos for the epic educational answer. 

As everyone is aware Houston is going through something epic as well as much of the coast of Texas.

@Caleb Heimsoth aside from the epic detail in those two posts, I’d say the real make/break step in that entire process was calling the bank and even walking into a local branch... until I zeroed in on the ONE perso at the bank who worked in Servicing that 1) knew what I was asking for 2) actually showed a smidge of customer service and empathy ... without her help.

Those folks once again will find it epically difficult to improve their standard of living or graduate from being tenants.

Not sure if the boys are still going to continue the podcast but nonetheless there is good content in the 20 episodes that are already out there.8) Title: Epic Real Estate Investing PodcastHost: Matt TheriaultTimeframe: June 2011 - TodayRoughly # of Episodes to date: 48Main or Recurring Topics: The Path to becoming wealthy through Real Estate Investing Quick Overview: Matt starts off with laying the road map to becoming wealthy through investing in real estate in episode #1 and he will stress that you should listen to that episode first to keep a vision on the motivation behind the topics.

Epic!

@Cory Mccarthy  all sectors crashed.... new construction  buy and hold , lending it was across the board.Now I know this site is primarily a buy hold /  specific areas got hammeredJust ask the new crop of apartment syndicators they got smoking deals on units because people lost jobs and could not pay rent.Ask anyone who owned units in Vegas or PhX when construction cratered and half the renters left and went back to Mexico  Buy and hold on its face does not insulate you from an epic crash like that one.In some markets it probably did and defiantly for the higher grade assets.. but remember this was also a job loss issue.

I basically ran an epically slow flip.
