The people with a lot of positive reviews are known as good sellers, and the people who have a lot of negative reviews typically don't get anyone's business or they may get outright banned.Now, this site I mention isn't selling houses, so maybe this is an apples to oranges comparison.  

People are like apples good and bad.  

You would have paid 186k in interest or a total of 452k for the house at the end of the term. your income in the samw time period is a cash flow of ca 500/month or 180k over the course of the loan, and same appreciation assumption after 30yrs (850k) your total return would be 578k, compared to the 1,48M of my initial example 🤯 I dont want to rationalize a bad deal, i have done quite well with my other properties, and love good cashflow as much as the next guy - but comparing apples to apples, if i dont NEED the cashflow, WHY would this be a 'bad deal'?

Carefully vet the PM and understand their tenant screening process but know that no matter how good of a job a PM does in screening, bad apples can slip under the radar. 

Apple just announced a Netflix competitor they are launching with original programming from big name stars.

here is no reason to shop anyone else those are awesome rates as long as its on drawn funds.. not sure what type of assets your buying .. buy and hold have cheaper rates than spec or rehab loans. so have to compare apples

I too work as a consultant (Business Pro, with Apple) and I am beginning my REI ventures this year. 

They are not really investors but speculators.Micheal  its totally apples to Oranges  when i got into this game a century ago or it feels like that.. investors did not buy SFR's per se like they do in droves today.. and from my cheap seats.. all the new construction we build not a single property goes to an investor.. price is the price and you get to the price by cost plus profit and profits are generally 10 to 20% of gross sales prices as your cmpeititon backs into it the same way.its only the last 20 or so years were soup de jour is getting rich only rentals and the easiest way to do that is buy low value SFR.. beginners can t start generally with 2 mil apartment complex.. but they can a 75k SFR.. 

You must compare apples to apples - I would never remotely compare my real estate experience to that of a full time real estate agent/broker/investor/developer/contractor.
