If you look for more singles and doubles and occasionally are able to hit a home run, then, in my opinion, you will win a lot more games (have more success with investing).Shiloh keep in mind in the PHX market many investors cash flow did not drop 20% it dropped 100% and stayed that way for an  extended time.. now not predicting another 08 meltdown but it happened to many of my personal clients that I sold Multi to up here in PDX they also bought PHX  and lost their properties altogether.. in my mind doomsday you need some pretty good reserves... but I am uber cautious these days after living through that one and 2 before it..  

Building a team is crucial and it sounds like your on the right track.  

hello Team,I recently evicted my tenant from my apartment and i was also rewarded the 4,400$ back rent the tenant owned me, now the tenant have moved to a new address that i do not know, which make it hard to take her to court to collect the money owned, i live in Worcester,Ma I have a feeling that she still live in Worcester,  the question is, what are my options at this point to collect the money?

Hi Ingrid, I connected with a husband/wife team at one of the BP meetups.

Putting together my team/network i.e., great GC’s, subs, a motivated Realtor, inspector, interior designer and the whole nine.

Find a team: lender, RE agent (preferably one who also invests and knows the ins and outs of your strategy), attorney (investor friendly), insurance agent5.

I made a crappy deal and lost some money a few years ago and now I'm ready to try again.

Manon,My team and I use DJ Jordan Properties - Jeff Katz and Matt Janner with Searchers Capital on a regular basis.
