On the residential side you have more red tape but I play in the commercial side.The type of workout and thought process for commercial properties and businesses is a whole other world compared to a homeowner or a small time investor with a house for a rental.

Ivan,You posted in another topic about an inheritance.I commend you for not going and buying a bunch of crap with it but wanting to invest it.I have seen some friends inherit large sums of money in the past that the grandparents and parents sweat blood and tears for them to have and did without to give them a chance at a better life.The friend was irresponsible and lived "high on the hog" for a few years and is now broker "working for the man".I think what you are underestimating is what it will take to do repairs correctly,the time involved,and how buying incorrectly can wipe out a large chunk of your wealth.Not knowing what kind of existing annual return you are getting on your money is a huge red flag.You have to compare the RETURN versus the RISK when moving money around or allocating a percentage of your portfolio of investments.If you don't you are "shooting in the dark" and might as well take a trip to Vegas and play the slot machines with your money.DON'T talk yourself into something and say "it's not so bad".That is what I am seeing from your posts and is the number one mistake of new investors.
