The next meeting is tomorrow at 6pm at Pho Hoang My(608 E Grand Ave) at Oaklawn Racing if you are interested!

I have an extensive background with tele-sales and marketing so wholesaling seemed to be a natural vehicle for me to get out of the corporate rat race. 

Would I be putting the cart before the horse by going to this meeting?

Goals for our family business is to get out of the rat race and sip adult beverages on a beach somewhere. 

The more I keep saying it, the more my eyes light up and my heart starts racing.

Slow and steady wins the race...

So you true REI PRO's out there let me know if I'm putting the cart before the horse please.BP4L,Mike

I'm trying to race against the clock and do this before others and beat competition and possibly price.

James you need a local investor who is also a broker that will go out and give you an opinion on it.I don't feel brokers/agents who are not investors themselves truly know how to evaluate risk versus return and location properly.There are rental markets where good can be defined.For instance certain areas of Atlanta are strong rental but strong crime as well.Those areas you can buy cheap but generally want a 15% CAP or higher to take it on.Nicer areas you might be fine with a 10% cap rate.It depends on if you are looking to hit massive cash flow to get out of the rat race or just want to buy a few tax shelters on the side in good areas and you already make a ton from your chosen profession.

Granted, these returns only work on the lower end "work horses" and not the Edmond "show horses".
