Our uncle in Lake Jackson has said the biggest issue is the area doesn't appreciate.

That gets the biggest pool of buyers and the highest price.I really munged the math on the per unit price. 

My biggest issue right now is that I have okay'd a couple of tenants to make partial rent payments but I'm worried about tracking.

My biggest issue is finding enough time to balance family, my day job, and my passion, which is real estate... and of course having enough cash and time to do every deal that I would like to take on. 

There is little downside, fewer renters to deal with, fewer HVACs, Roofs, Pipes, etc.I wouldn't go much over 100K each though.

Downside is your ROI is lower than a leveraged/mortgaged house.

The longer you can get them do amortize the loan out for, the better your cash flow will be.And, to me, the biggest hurdle in growing your investing is the amount of cash flow you have.

We'll talk about: - The 10 best ways to find properties (even in a hot market) - The 10 biggest mistakes people make when analyzing properties (and end up buying TERRIBLE deals because of those mistakes!)

Having been on BP for quite some time, I think the biggest mistake newcomers make is finding something like the 2% rule and thinking it's the holy grail.

The biggest things are- can they pay, do they understand the rules and regulations and will they comply, the rental history etc.
