@Tyler Strang - Know your criteria, limitations, budget and objectives:  Do you want (and are willing to pay for) updated buildings; tired, but rent-ready buildings; tired and desperate for love; or vacant properties?    

I now have the ability to look at "tired" properties with a different eye! 

I feel that i prematurely bought this unit but the price fell below the 70% rule. 

Being apathetic and sayIng It does not affect me is generally good advise till the one tenant gets tired of the crap from the nutcase neighbors and theIr kIds so he up and leaves .

Rarely is the current LL a fool when it comes to rental rates; but he/she may just have gotten tired or fed up with the whole thing-it happens.

We have researched every way possible to finance investment properties and I have over-analyzed it to the point where I am tired of thinking about it.I have been listening to Bigger Pockets for a while as well as Clayton Morris.

I'm tired of losing deals that I find on the MLS!

You still need to kick the tires.

Hello, new here and really looking to just kick the tires.

Most realtors worth their salt are already going to have investors they are working with, you need to establish yourself as a mover/shaker in order to get a realtor to actual do work for you.They only get paid if you buy, and there are WAY more newbies who kick tires than close deals.
