I see far too many people rushing to get out ahead.

Infinite return.I have systems in place and people to deal with issues. 

I think this is smart to do, but you are making move for quality of life as well so make sure the town is a place you will enjoy (along with the new job) living.I've seen people use metrics to move out-of-state without really getting a feel for how much their lifestyle suits the new market.

In California, something that I see a lot, is people just let the tax collector take the property. 

So much free info and people willing to help.

I put LVP in my rentals, so far people love it.

That is something that people might come across, sometimes elderly sellers just want the liquidity as soon as possible.  

They are this amazing "new" loan product, that solves all issues for new investors.

I am a new landlord with people coming to look at the apartment.

The appreciate play is an underrated component that people who are waiting to get into the market until rates drop more may be missing out on.
