Market fluctuations is precisely the topic I am interested in studying.

Thought about trust deed investments, loans, investing in commercial with PPM deals (private placement memorandum), etc?

That's my $.02 from a non-lawyer who has invested in a few private placements.    

So long story long I decided to hold my license in a brokerage that specializes in property management that way ill have some decent experience before purchasing my first buy and hold.Im working with retail buyers and doing tenant screening and placement which i would suggest to anyone to start out doing.

If you have a really good handle on comparables and can get fairly precise on your estimate of fair value (and are willing to pay fair value), make an offer more than your willing to pay to ensure you best the other offer.

So this is just terminology with private placements. 

They handle everything from tenant placement, monthly management, evictions, rent collections, maintenance, and so forth.

Part of this investing is hopefully learning what kind of returns are available for what types of investing and in which locations.So every question you are asking is precisely the type of data I was hoping to get from posts to this discussion. 

Part of a vicious cycle of tenant placement with $0 deposit or $0 application fee, you are not capturing high-quality tenants in these cases, the result is abrupt move-outs etc...

We offer a 24 hour maintenance service, Free tenant screening and placement, a legal team for any eviction or real estate claims, rent collection and much more.
