Why not buy a lesser home that is in the sweet spot of the SFRs for the area and cash flows better?

You close on the property yourself..by now you should have a feel for the game, know how to get sweet deals for the low low and more importantly know how to calculate repairs...yup..close on it yourself...no end buyer no assignments..that 40k profit is all yours..... hire a contracting company or if your a hands-on guy...

I think my sweet spot would be 7 hours, but with my schedule it's pretty much impossible. 

That's pretty sweet someone local found this already, thank you for letting me know about the meet up!

Most investors are trying to get to their sweet spot.

Stalker and serial killerOf forums and sweet deals!  

@Gwen Fyfe, sounds like you are putting in the necessary work to live on less and find a way to still invest, that is sweet.  

That's the short and sweet of it.

Commercial real estate is usually a leading indicator and there are some troubling signs statistically, and many malls are melting down now.The most important takeaway though is that yeah we may be in a bubble, but if you find a sweet deal and you're not forced to sell it, even if it rents for a tiny bit less during a downturn, who cares?

Pretty sweet deal if you ask me.
