Quote from @Drew Sygit: @Travis Biziorek you got me!

I'm 53, married with 2 kids less than 17 years old with debt only from purchases on credit cards and my home.

I'm sure I could go to some midwest markets or even some more depressed markets in my region and get better pricing, but that's out of my wheelhouse at this point in my life as I have no desire to learn new markets when I'm closer to the end than the beginning. .Sure, obvious but over looked.

I don't think that simply having an LLC would protect you from that Bubba the roofer.

It's not a hard program to learn and there are no "secrets" to be successful.We've managed thousands of S8 leases during our 24 years in the Detroit market, DM us if you'd like to chat.

My company currently manages 15 properties, with 20+ leads in the pipeline, and we’re expecting to double our portfolio this year.

@Eric Fernwood, and @Michael Clardy,  Yes, it is perfectly fine to convert a property from investment into your primary residence. 

But to really answer your question - from an outsider's view - things have tightened up and continue to be tight....deals are harder to find, and interest rates make some good deals just average.  

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

This is our best March in 4 years.
