When the writing on the wall is "this is a great investment option" and people start flocking to it then it is time to pull back and watch the fun.

Your friends that earn a good living and have all of the toys, do it because that's what they enjoy.

I watched the videos from www.rentlikeapro.com this website is really great for the training.

They do not want to live in a building shared with other apartments anymore, so they enjoy having their own house for 2-3 years.Once the 2nd kid comes along they start looking for bigger space but that is okay.

I do enjoy flipping but I would really like to get into land-lording.

Im a young aspiring Real estate investor looking to get into my first buy and hold rental soon and really just grow my career through persistence and hard work so I can enjoy passivity and get out of the rat race.I'm interested in small multi-family and also ways to finance those deals with low and no money down(Just bought the book).I would love to hear advice and success stories from anyone in the surrounding area, or anyone in general.

On my rare moments of down time I enjoy photography, traveling, college football/basketball, petting llamas and talking to my dog about the emotional benefits of barking less.

Enjoying the discussion.  

I enjoy reading all these and learning about real estate investors (especially part time ones) and your intro post is one of the more enjoyable ones I have seen.
