Quote from @V.G Jason: The excuses people make to invest at the most casual level is appalling.I'm not going to sit here and compare lives, but trust me folks with 20x the amount of stuff on their plate can go out there and invest properly in RE by doing their diligence.

If I'm sitting on $100,000 equity in my home, I don't tithe on that equity because it is not actual money in my pocket.

Also, keep an eye on sales activity in the neighborhood, including how long homes are sitting on the market and recent price trends.### Avoid Common MistakesBe cautious of common mistakes like underestimating repair costs, not having a solid exit strategy, and overpaying for the property.

I am not talking about a quiet title action, but rather that after several years the change happened automatically. 

I’ve read the legal paperwork regarding what’s done in order to quiet the title on a tax lien property. 

Check on the property regularly to make sure it's not sitting vacant with a wide open door. 

@Nestor Rodriguez so you want to live next to someone that doesn't work, sits home all day smoking weed with their troublemaking friends and attracting other lowlifes?
