I hope your attorney can help you and remember to stream your energy to find the next deal yourself so you can cover this loss; this is the most helpful way to let go of that feeling of being scammed.

In this post, I will explain the criteria and the information sources.Income requirements for financial independence:Rents increase faster than inflation: Inflation erodes the value of money over time, causing prices for goods and services to rise.

If this is your first real estate purchase I would stay away from auctions, there's too much risk involved especially with where price points are in your market.

And what is your price point and are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper"?

Buying the land right (at a good price) will determine the end result of cash flow (if building the home to keep) especially as you factor in Holding costs and Builder fees. 

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

I think that areas on the outskirts of desirable cities where many people are moving (ie: Charleston) have great long term potential, as eventually people start to rent right outside the downtown area when prices rise. 

Looking for some advice here - I have a 15,000 sq. ft. class-B warehouse located in an industrial park of the Chicago suburbs, near O'Hare:- Acquired for $1m and recent prices suggest I could sell for $140 per sq. ft. ~$2.1m- Cash flows at $140k annuallyI've been self-managing and it has been honestly pretty easy (send invoices, schedule routine maintenance/inspections), but otherwise I have no real knowledge or experience in the industrial space (I mostly invest in STR's).
