Until he was working for us, I had no idea he had a drinking or relationship problem.

There are speculative pockets that could move back some, but great locations have plenty of fuel to continue upward.  

Plenty of opportunities out there just need to hustle to them in this environment. 

There are plenty of lenders out there that don't require 20% down and so many ways to make the deal happen without it. 

I like Vegas for a few reasons personally even though there is NO turn key there1. desert air.. maintenance is minimall NO hail  no shifting foundations and no sky rocketing property tax's  ( as oppossed to Texas were all this is common place.. sky high property tax's  shifting foundations Hail ( new roofs think of your deductible)  etc etc.but there are plenty of markets out there.. as much as anything is about PM but if your in CA and in Oakland I think another good play is parts of Richmond that don't have any rent control. find those..

plenty of info here on BP regarding BRRRR strategy.  

I've been in sales for 15 years and made plenty of cold calls.

There are not many jobs where OT is plentiful these days. 

Plenty of good stuff on the message boards but the vast majority of the content on the site won't apply to this market.Also you're not going to find 10% cash on cash returns anywhere around here especially not on a single family house.

. : $(15k-20k) ~I see a lot of delta here between a potential final asking price and a total project cost.All in all, I think that there is a market for this type of modern, "environmentally friendly" type of home, and I've seen news-stories on successful storage container homes that were built in Denver.Should I believe all of the hype, or am I drinking too much kool-aid?
