If you have a good property management crew, that mitigates a lot of that though.But...I've been considering other investments like peer street or realty mogul or realty shares.  

I am academically and street smart, do my research however biggest problem is i'm a perfectionist which holds me back in starting projects etc.

Each street can be very different, one populated by doctors and administrators, the next street could have 20% boarded houses. 

Whether it was due to their ignorance of RE (like they're just guys off the street who read a blog about RE and think they can therefore wholesale to get rich quick ) or they just wanted to throw a crap deal onto someone because they're a straight up con-man.

I am confident based on comps on the street I could bump up rent to 1500-1600.  

They didn't know or care what we were doing when we were playing outside for hours until the street lights came on.  

I purchased my property for 30k, we are putting about 90k in to the property and there is a very similar property that just sold on the same street 6 lots down for 275k. 

The owner is willing to sell below market value, just waiting for offer from myself, he also notified me he would not be offended by a low offer but I'm not sure what to offer Market value $325,0004-bedroom, 3-bathroomYearly taxes of around $1,500•Ideal setting – just two blocks off Main Street, but on almost an acre (.97 ac)!

Imagine it this way: a guy walks up to you on the street and says "Hey, fella, it's your lucky day - I have this house worth $160k.

Now I say that and I did a 7 lot one in North Charleston that I got through in 4 months.. but the lots were on a paved street with city sewer and water.. if you have to build infrastructer it can take a year to put plans together and get them approved.I think being a land ACK person for a big developer or builder would also teach you a lot with getting paid to do it.
