The big question would be do you want to be Active in investing or do you want a passive investment.What many call real estate investing is really just a high paying Job.

Hey all,Ok I've been stalled for a while (well since I got my first triplex wich I still have), things are getting boring and I wanna get active again!

Around here, some neighborhoods are very active and some are completely dead except for REOs at fire sale prices.

I came to a couple conclusions after sitting through her annoying seminar: One...she is probably not actively negotiating short sales but rather making all her money selling her boot camps and packets.

BTW, I just left TX after 30 years as an active investor.

Dad actively managed the property.

That's scary to a lot of folks...and they leave and don't come back unless they see some activity to improve that situation.

The guy who bought it was talking to me this past weekend when I was peeking in the windows.

Recently I have lost 2 great deals, because I didn't make an offer on the spot and the other was because my agent was at a family function over the weekend and didn't have a freaking backup.

I enjoy this and I hope you all have a great weekend!
