The area by the race track has definitely seen some rapid growth since NASCAR has invested hundreds of millions into that area.

If you can't control the little you make now, you won't control your investments.

Sometimes, the unsophisticated purchasers have to be taken by the hand by the listing agent and sometimes dragged across the finish line with a lot of services involved and typically a lower commission than a multifamily investment.

I want to invest in real estate by using the BRRRR method.

I've had several bids, all much higher than the original, unrealistically low contract price, with of course a lot of variety in the price, experience, and track record of various builders.

Hi, I am newly under contract for my first investment property, a duplex we plan to live in and rent out.

BUT, in my 45 years of real estate investing, brokering, syndicating, advising, I’ve come to the conclusion that investors go in PRIMARILY interested in one or the other. 

I've accumulated a bit of capital and I'm trying to figure out the best way to appreciate on it; and real estate always struck me as a good option—a true classic.I'm from Europe, but I don't really feel location tied in terms of investments—I wonder actually, do many of you do business internationally?
