A fish knows his own pond the best.Just my 2 cents.

No rental license number in counties that require them is an automatic loss in Maryland.Assuming the property is built prior to 1978, are you registered for lead pain with the Maryland Department of the Environment?

A AWESOME book is called blue fishing, he’s the guy that maintains relationships and basically finds out what everyone needs and knows how to connect them.

Due to irreconcilable differences this has become a very volatile environment and she is thinking of leaving the home , if she does is this considered abandonment and does this constitute forfeiture of any rights or profits from a home sale?

With the current environment, it pretty much seems to be tough anywhere to find deals. 

This has been great advice.Here are the general themes I am taking away: -Houston Market is unbelievably HOT, due to various factors, margins and cash flow are being squeezed, and even veteran investors are moving cautiously - with that said there are deals to be had, requires patience, diligence, but also speed to action To add to that: My general observation is that, low rates and hedges against inflation is flooding the market with cash, increasing the cost of assets but the rents have not caught up.With that I can see why it will be difficult to BRRR, but shouldn’t the flipping strategy still be effective in this environment, assuming you can cover your purchase premium paid via your charging a premium at your exit.Should Investors be looking to Flip and hold cash for when the market allows buy/hold deals to pencil?

I will pass even on great deals because a deal only as good as the environment for the small business.

In the current environment, however, fix and flip strategies make a great deal of sense (and money if done right). 

If you don’t prepare for an inflationary investing environment, these negative things can happen to you:- Losing HALF of your net worth (or more)- Loss of purchasing power and real wealth- Underperforming investments- Dealing with the regret that you didn’t take action So - What do I do with my investments and how do I protect my wealth?

As an out of state investor looking to make his first SFH investment purchase in the Triad region, I'm curious to hear what investors are currently experiencing in the region given the current macro environment (e.g., low rates, low inventory, large stimulus, etc.).
