I live in S Fla so unless you gamble, just want management fees or are happy to park money... buying MF is not really happening ... right now it’s about waiting for nervous developers to capitulate in bulk or making deals with the loan to own lenders last in the door 

The gamble.

It may be a good move, but it’s a known gamble as very few cash flowing deals are to be had there.

Here is the main issue.. again for some reason todays investor at least on BP has it pounded into their head that appreciation is gambling and that cash flow is everything..

It is funny how one’s perspective changes and suddenly old houses you’ve driven by 1000 and never noticed now almost throw themselves into the road ahead of you.Keep up the podcast immersion and keep us posted on your progress.

Waiting for a correction is a gamble.

Lots of folks invest primarily for appreciation, but that's too much like gambling to me - just invest in stocks.  

I feel like I might be at a point where it’s best to just dump them and start new.  ...and there's your answer.Do you know the similarity between Poker and REI (not gambling)? 

I don't think you'd lose much money if you gamble with one.

Silll, buying a home that you do not enjoy and that does not make sense as an investment will likely be a painful waste of money unless you hope to hit the appreciation jackpot, in which case you're gambling and not investing.
