What metrics need to be true for you to pull the trigger?

Yes I agree with you but I am trying to narrow it down so I can finally pull the trigger.

@Keiron O Brien I own properties in Providence, nothing in Woonsocket atm but I have owned there in the past.No experience in Western Mass, but if you post which towns you're wondering about specifically, maybe it will trigger some folks' keyword alerts.

Official divorce is the only event that can trigger the split.

Buying a home is almost always triggered by a life change: a birth, a divorce, a marriage, a death.

That said, I am absolutely determined to make sure I'm not one of the people that give up, fail, or never get started -- even though, as a naturally risk-averse person, am having a really difficult time getting out of the analysis paralysis and pulling the trigger on a deal.

With properties selling within hours of coming out, having your process streamlined and criteria nailed down with the intent of pulling the trigger is of the utmost importance.

I'm looking to make moves here soon.Doing research, saving and boosting credit I'm almost ready to pull the trigger.

I'm excited, I'm currently doing as much research as possible to prepare myself to pull the trigger on my first deal.

Close to pulling the trigger on purchasing one that is great otherwise, but I’m concerned about the potential rental impact due to that.
