So many of my investors have been complaining that the market has been too hot and prices too high; now competition is lessening and prices are normalizing and they're too scared to pull the trigger.

For me, if you are a serious buyer, pre-approved and ready to pull the trigger when we find what you are looking for, you can't waste my time.  

(This is important because when a deal comes your way that makes sense, you won't hesitate to pull the trigger while others may be on the fence about what steps to take next). 

My suggestion, once you are able to pull the trigger, is look at buying a property and placing them with a PM company to manage them.

I don't see the trigger for something to happen with interest rates or jobs at the moment... but they're both about as good as it gets right now.

Some lenders will trigger the due on sale clause whereas others will allow this.

Some things can only be truly learned by actually pulling the trigger and diving in but at least you can learn the basics and be on the right path towards financial freedom. 

Even at 50/50, it should be a winning play all around, or don't pull the trigger on the deal.
