Yes, if your buying on a lake and you want to retain demand it still must be a desirable lake.  

I am very ambitious and have a strong and eager desire to learn.

I am not a proponent of taking on the reliability of a personal home if you have a desire to invest.

This poor seller had already moved out of state and completed all of her desired repairs.  

Whatever it is, angle your approach so that it fits what some of her goals/desires are.

The true money investor does not have the time, willingness or desire to deal directly with each investor.

Investors can tend to take up more time submitting bids and use more agent time than desired, and since they're paid on commission, they might not be as fond of investors.

I personally favor saturated markets with proven desirability and avoid markets that have declining populations like the plague.So, I'd run.

I think the first questions you have to ask yourself is what is your desired goal with RE investing?

I have single story and two story mutuality families and the ground floor units tend to be more desirable because a lot of people hate going up and down stairs....especially old people and obese people.
