Remember, the notion of amassing wealth without investing is a dangerous myth perpetuated by self-proclaimed experts.

I've done this with my properties because I'm well known in my small town and don't want people to know what I own.LEGAL PROTECTION: By placing your assets in an LLC, you are legally separating them from your personal assets.

Without a doubt many people are still crushing it because they have a strong network and build great systems over time doing the same thing over and over again aka FOCUS!

Start small, build a reserve fund, and work with local experts to ensure your first investment is a solid one.Good luck!

People weren't renting properties as quickly, and there was an increase in vacancy.

@Grant ShipmanIn my experience with these units are very difficult to manage and people at the 30% level also create a new set of problems.

Knowing the rent will likely show up each month—even if the tenant has challenges—removes a lot of the uncertainty that can come with rentals.The people listing this apartment as a “Section 8 property” are likely trying to target buyers who value that stability.

people will sue for anything these days. 

Was wondering if other people went down this avenue

I think you have the basics of meeting partners and people to work with in your local market and seem to be well on the way with two deals going already so big congrats there!
