However keep in mind there is no shortage of inventory .. so don't get sucked into thinking you have to buy today other wise the deal won't be there.. there are always homes to buy that's why these companies have been around for a decade or longer.The morris tactic's frankly are just trashy the way they do things.. at least from what I have read on BP that's my personal opinion.. you have people posting that Morris showed them a house the call back 2 hours later only to have morris say its sold... this prompted them to buy the next one sight unseen for fear of losing it.. this is old school sales techiniques called the take away close. same with the scheduling phone calls so far out.. gives you this sense of scarcity.. pretty brilliant really.. these are not dumb marketers by any stretch and obviously its worked.

I no longer want to post here anymore because i fear my posts will be deleted because they do not please our overlords.

I'm hoping the use of a property management company to keep the transactions at an arm's length will help.The obstacle that I fear the most is having a tenant stop paying rent because they've been stricken with cancer or some other disaster outside of their control.We have to decide as a church what our response will be.  

I think many new investors live in the paralysis of fear, of doing something wrong.

When we shift our mind to be grateful for something it allows us to live in a beautiful state instead of the constant suffering of stress, anger or fear.

ARV is 85,000Reno is 30,000Asking price is $49,900 but offering $25kMy issue is holding costs and fear of it actually costing more than $30,000 for a complete remodel.

Maybe I am fearful of the unknown lol.

Will be using it in the future for sure.Agreed, I also fear the condition of the home. 1 picture is not a good sign.

You have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable at first until you develop the ability to handle your fears and stop worrying about the what ifs. 

Do you, as an investor, fear another housing market crash?
