bye bye, and that most people who are going to carry notes on their own properties, will now have to be licensed.

Our numbers show we can rent that home during peak season (June, July and August) and it will pay our mortgage on the home for the year. 

However a much higher % are selling below list price, signifying to me that prices have peaked and will start to turn. 5+ bedroom homes are down about 10% in price however. 

For whatever reason, smaller MF in Tulsa seems to always sell quickly and even before this peak of the market there was never an oversupply.  

During the true peak season they are slammed.  

Have to dig into each property specifically to really know what you're getting and make sure the back of napkin math works.Other markets to peak into if you like up-and-comers: Hickory, Burlington/Mebane/Graham, Gastonia.

and my husband and I are ready to take the first leap into real estate investment.We have the opportunity to buy a 4-unit property from my mom -- she bought it in 2006 at the peak of the market, has sunk a lot of cash into it, and lives out of the country.

Also it doesnt sound right that most experienced investors aren't bothered by the price fluctuations.They may not be focusing on D2D prices, but if they buy a dividend stock at peak and it falls 20% and remains under for a year or two, or longer - this is one heck of a waste.

I work for the power company in my area and rates are changing to the point where the solar peak periods are becoming the cheapest rate.

So a good $50-100k down minimum will have to be the norm.But you would still invest in a market that is about to peak in sale prices..
