Yeah, he’s done some impressive things, but let’s not act like he single-handedly invented Tesla or revolutionized every aspect of manufacturing.

So we'd want to ask ourselves why a company making hand over fist, isn't in this market.

Most on the other hand are not responsible individuals, are not educated, do not work  which means they are going to be spending most of their time home causing additional wear and tear.

Cash buyers have the upper hand due to no appraisal contingency and able to close a lot quicker.

On the other hand, I am aware of a few students who thought they would start out small and work their way up, but realized that their first deal could very well be a 60+ unit apartment complex.

In my experience, success in D-class areas almost always requires being local, extremely hands-on, and self-managing.

My goal Is to help get items of value/desire back into the 2nd hand market instead of getting just thrown out.

I also own properties in C/C+ neighborhoods, and although the cash flow is higher, those properties are more hands-on, and I typically experience higher turnover.

But you can't do that without investors assuming your average guy/gal and I don't think I'm cutout for that and that is a lot more hands on. 

  ( I keep 30 tons on hand before each storm ) We are sending trucks and men out in terrible conditions for long periods of time , at all hours of the day .
