He's answered all my questions, helped me do minor tweaks to my overall business plan, steered me towards some deals and away from others.The guy is worth his weight in gold.

@William Hochstedler While I'm new to investing I may not carry much weight, but I think I'd have to agree after watching the market here for a short period of time.

Just because sales lessen doesn't mean prices go down, necessarily.

There are definitely ways to lessen risk.

I put more weight into Cashflow and CoC Return than I do the others.

Even if you have a different weighting system on what type of people commit certain types of offenses, the job market does not.And losing a job is the number one factor in tenants being evicted.For a felon, finding a job becomes very difficult.

Enjoy and I wish you well on your real estate and weight loss journey... :-)

If you enjoy yourself, you lessen the stress and anger when you go over budget or when a drywaller doesn't show up.
