Collecting rents and cashflow barely keeps up with inflation.My 2nd worst thought and business model is the risks involved with getting into syndicated real estate deals where someone (not you) controls the investments and controls your money.

And most of the wholesale deals barely net money might be able to pay yourself as a construction worker with all the risk.Gotta hustle drive for $.....

A are typically your best neighborhoods, good schools, and ideal tenants (good credit score, savings, 3x income etc)B are often your upgrade homes, still very nice, solid schools, etc.C is typically your blue collar and sometimes starter homes in more expensive areas.D are your rough neighborhoods with low entry but low appreciation (you may have heard the term "war zone", but that is not a term we allow to be used in the forums.

If (A), I shake your hand and I make you a promise that I'm going to sell you a property.Then (B), I decide I'm not going to sell you the property,Because (C), perhaps I can get more money for it elsewhere,And (D) I see no need to inform my handshake buyer before I put out the property to market...QED: That makes me A LYING CHEATING SCUMBAG WHOSE WORD ISN'T WORTH A DAMN.Those are the bare bones of the matter.

Not a surprise.The instructor described the class as being like building codes, it is the bare minimum of what "they" want to see.

As a landlord and buyer/seller I 'don't spend' $90k on avg /yr taking care of things myself and still barely 'work'.  

We rent single family homes and as of recent we see people apply with a reason I never seen before; they are selling their personal home to cash out; and Milwaukee has only seen modest appreciation this year, will see where we land, looks like barely double digits. 

I spent 2 months calling a list I pulled off of Propwire, and now after 2712 people called with my bare hands, I've finally done it.

There are some investors that just park money into barely cash-flowing assets for appreciation (although I truly do not believe this is as common or attractive).

Will investors freak out knowing i am barely putting money down?
