I don't know Albany, but the deals in Syracuse are drying up - presumably because out-of-towners (no offense - I grew up there, but am now an out-of towner myself) are coming in buying properties at too-high prices.

Also, in theory, one can have 100K/yr passive income but a networth (assets-liabilities) of only 100K (with a bunch of debt), and is likely to go broke and lose all networth if passive income dries up due to situations like Covid-19, Covid-20 and s on....

Low end Summerlin, or almost anywhere in Vegas.Speaking of rents, I have a 4plex, behind MGM casino, that is gated, washer/dry, and one car garage.

My investment fund is dry but my emergency and general savings accounts should last me 5-8 months.

Along with the DRY Vodka Martini :) 

I'll find the house at the auction block eventually and have to deal with an old fridge and dried moldy Sheetrock sometime next year.

Talk about a dry season!

TitleWorking on finding a title company that does double closings, preferably dry ones. 

I am the culprit and have sold many dry lots that I thought where worthless but then to see the property owner out camping on the property the next weekend he bought it from me,  that I thought was worthless, guess they call that pride of ownership.
