Anyhoo, my long term goal is to build a rental “empire” to pass down to my children and so on. 

In "Building an Empire," Brian Curruthers emphasizes the paramount importance of establishing relationships as the foundation for success.

Win-win's are important to Krohn and he feels that an ethical business must include this type of win-win to be worth while.Through the use of private money, and rent-to-owns, he has built a real estate empire of hundreds of single family properties and he is working to make limitless a billion dollar business.How he makes moneyAside from the rent-to-own properties, he is constantly selling and renting.

It's a doom cycle that every major empire has gone through before.

As an agent in the SoCal/Inland Empire area I can tell you one of the issues we're facing is an inventory shortage.

Maybe you don't want to build the next great real estate empire, but continue purchasing more saavy investments every couple of years.

Thats why in 08 to 2011 you had so many owners in Vegas PHX inland empire just do strategic foreclosure.

So many successful investors have built empires over the past 10 years on lucrative cash flow deals that just aren't there anymore. 

As well as empirical evidence.

I owned and sold/rented a few mobile homes, and somehow today I came across mods and am now binge searching all day.I'm out in Cali, and out in the inland empire land is cheap.
