A City collection over 1M residents is sick and tired of putting liens on 25% leased properties at any time.

I guess my concern is if I sell premature and the property values continue to increase and I miss out but there is no telling and I just can't see the prices increasing all that much in the near term but perhaps after the next dip which could be another 5-10 years (who knows?)

It is hard because everybody wants to throw out wide nets, and there is a part investing that is about throwing out a wide net to focus on retention, but when he got tired of the stage we moved up to a whole other level.

Can you imagine a whole shopping center with Safeway, Grocery Outlet, Hair Solone, McDonald's, Tire Shop, Auto parts store, your friendly real estate office, etc all GONE with all the residences houses full of memories and the roofs over everyone around their head is/could be GONE in a matter of a few minutes.

The best thing you can do is know your numbers, pick a small section (preforeclosures, absentee owners, tired landlords, etc) and stay laser-focused on that niche.

I had been managing my 14 units and was tired of turning down request from my clients to manage their property so I got my brokers license and started a PM company.  

I’m tired and I’d like to get a bit more passive about investing now.

So why not start with a tired and true model and manage itself yourself from afar?

I'm tired of this life and I want my financial freedom and my time for myself.

But I purchased mine off-market, below FMV from tired landlords or homeowners with a problem they needed help solving.
