Your current perspective will either cripple your success or it will propel it.Just make sure that you have your greatest asset (YOU and YOUR MIND) working for you and not against you.To get back to your original question, I think that most investment strategies will still work in any market but you have to properly structure your numbers with a full understanding of what your market is doing.

every area is differentand in my experience real estate is all LOCALi have find great properties that work..but bad properties only a few block away that don't work. your knowledge in area is a big plus...as for lender or buying whole in cash. i have to say.. do what is right for you. don't listen to others about lenders or banks. its all with the individual.... if you don't feel comfortable...buy all in cash. as for me...i like to leverage since its a form of asset protection and great return for your money. thankssunsmicro
