Different strokes for different folks.RDPD may not be the holy grail of RE books but it is what helped me change my perspective on investments.

I'm very new to the area and as a perspective real estate investor so any advice would be greatly appreciated.  

I'm pretty fresh to Bigger Pockets and the Carson Valley as well.

While i trust my agent, I want to get another perspective and professional opinion.

I have a lot to learn about real estate investing and need all the perspective I can get.

When you ask whether we could stand living in a less desirable place for 366 days, it kind of puts things into perspective.

We have to wait and see the evolution of this market from a micro AND macro perspective.

I feel like I can learn a lot from your perspective as well.Glad you're here!

I could move there tomorrow and buy 5,000 houses if I wanted to.. but I don't want to.. other areas I like better and I would not enjoy the winter months at all.I really liked being there in the summer though down by the lake and if I lived there I would have a nice boat and live in one of those mansions in Grosse Point.. any city is great to live in if you have enough means.. the other thing from a business man perspective is I loved staying at the hotel at the airport and walking through their security line.. most convientant.
