After Malin moved from the home, it was leased for parties, events, and a number of film shoots appearing in such films as Charlie’s Angels and Body Double, securing a place in our popular consciousness.

Am very interested in pursuing the BRRRR method, but am conscious that I need to take action and start somewhere to get myself from 0 to 1.I'm still trying to nail down the market I'd like to invest in, but am very intrigued by Jacksonville (as hot as it seems to be right now...), Gainesville (possibly more of a rent by the room scenario for the college crowd) and Lakeland, a very high rent to own ratio area closer to home.

I think the basic psychology problem is everyone from the same consciousness has a similar thought process: they're working for the same company and they're buying/renting in the same neighborhood.

When it comes time to do something outside your comfort zone, recognize that you are breaking through a barrier and make the conscious decision to run through it.

The frenzy moving from the forefront to an afterthought in the public consciousness takes a lot of air out of the bubble and pressure off of everyone involved--pressure off aspiring operators because they are onto the next thing, pressure off existing operators because the inflation/oversaturation abates, pressure off "evil investors" because people that don't know what they are doing aren't overbidding for properties and contributing to the abysmally low long term housing supply step back, pressure off local governments to fight "investors" from taking over their communities...

What are some market trends of which I should be conscious of?

The other complication is that as military personnel, we tend to be rank-conscious. 

My favorite, they encouraged us to rip out our lawn and put in hardscaping to save water and be environmentally conscious.

I am conscious of that. and willing to change/adapt if necessary. 

What about the area - I know these are not the most cost-conscious areas in LA...?
