My condos have doubled in appraised value, and in addition they now net a combined 41K per year which is, for me, precious supplemental income.

I’m 2 hours away in Augusta.

I invested in precious metals and made 8% in 6 1/2 months.

Looking for any advice, I'm a licensed Realtor looking to get into investing in Augusta, GA!

@John Smithe - This is going to come down to the following:1) Your personal investment philosophy: your goals, your interests, your time horizon, your risk tolerance, and your interpretation of world events 2) Your unfair advantage: your skills, your expertise, your network, your resourcesBiggerPockets tends to bring together like minds and similar experience, so this sampling bias might result in concluding that a large multifamily in the Midwest, for example, is the best use of your funds.Ask the broad universe of investors the same question, however, and your answers will be quite different.Real estate might well be your best investment, but so might be starting a business, or picking stocks, or buying precious metals.  

I  joined Roofstock last August as a newbie looking for my first property. 

Hey, @Bernadino Lopez I’m an agent in Augusta, Ga so our markets may be a little different but square footage isn’t always a huge factor in price.

Real estate, precious metals, perhaps even a bit of cryptocurrency if you are feeling froggy.

Note to any magazine article writers that hate landlords: I am advocating following all state and local laws to "protect" any and all precious tenant victims.
