Or is it too expensive to ride?

i live in LA and during the recession just about everyone i know negotiated their rents down. it happens. just make sure your numbers work and that you have some downside protection, especially if you think we are at or nearing the top. a lot of people who bought between 2010 and now have no complaints about riding the market up and are happy to share their success stories, but a lot of people who were destroyed by the crash may not even be on bp. if you are buying on thinner margins, make sure your numbers are sound, you have some protection and enough reserves to weather a storm. 

Over time you may depend and trust your people on the ground a lot more but still suggest to spend the plane ride and accommodation cost, as you will be parking much more money there over the next few months/years.  

Only 1.5-2 hr drive/2 hr train ride and you can find many cash flow opportunities in the central PA area.  

We just need to ride the wave.

It is .6 acres, plenty of parking for boats and cars, no HOA, no restrictions, big side yard for volley ball net / badminton, horse shoes, corn hole, or whatever.

Hi BP community,I am looking for a turnkey investment for long term rental and long hold to ride the appreciation wave and would like insights on suburbs south of Austin like Buda/Kyle and suburbs close to Dallas around the Fortworth area.

Thanks in advance for your feedback and help.RaquelWow.. looks like you got taken on a ride.

Let your equity ride and continue to increase with each passing year.

Key for me is holding enough reserve to ride through the bumps.
