Solid gold brother. 

Im not playing in SW WI, but i do in Northern WI, you really need to know your market and numbers, compas are tougher to understand, but I do well im my markets, the majority of my portfolio is either rural, or in towns below 15K people. if you have a good team and a PM that operates at a high level, those markets can be gold, but its not for everyone, its not easy, but generally there is little competition and high demand@Michael B. population of 70K is quite big in most of WI other than Milwaukee, Green Bay, Madison and Appleton, there are not many cities north of 50K populations. 

Those who purchased 20-30  years ago in Western Nassau near the border with Queens are sitting on a gold mine. 

I’m looking to purchase gold coins with my checkbook SDIRA.

Price is worth gold down there now. 

Upgrades would have to be in line with the neighborhood (so gold plated fixtures would not be paid for) but it's super rare for this to occur.

Digging a hole looking for gold is not investing.

CPA's who are also RE Investors are gold.

Right attitude, no headaches, no babysitting, has to love real estate ( not compare it to stocks,gold,etc.

I want to ask anyone that has a beat at the current trends for flipping houses at Southern California.Are there zip codes that are gold mines?
