So during this unprecedented market, investors may need to be patient, wait out the storm, and read the tea leaves….Miami Condo Collapse Should be a Real Awakening.

They are generally respectful, except that they have frequent religious/spiritual ceremonies outside, and at night.

@Bryce John, there's no set-in-stone method for jumping into real estate investing and everyone has a different position/situation, but here's my practical advice/steps: obtain W2 employment (lenders like to see this), save religiously, cut unnecessary expenses, build your credit, educate yourself on the strategy of house hacking (there's thousands of forum posts and multiple books on this topic), acquire your first house hack deal and decipher if you like being a landlord or not.

Trying to pass a special assessment was impossible because nobody knew what was going on and the owners who were religiously making their monthly payments realized some of their neighbors didn’t even know they were supposed to pay anything for years!

Get on their email lists and check them religiously.  

@Jim PellerinPeople don’t know what they don’t know and do not understand riskFar too many people get into real estate because they see someone else doing it and similar to 2002-2007 anyone could make money in real estate the last five years and think it’s east money with little workThose people are in for a rude awakening

Nobody around me is even interested in real estate besides my girlfriend which we both study religiously (reading and podcasts) but I know that’s where both our passions are & in terms of a career where we should be and that we can build generational wealth.

Build your credit, save religiously, work in a W2 position so lenders will take you seriously, etc. 

Watch every video that you can on YouTube about wholesaling, listen to the biggerpockets wholesaling episodes religiously, read often and focus on becoming a better version of yourself daily.Best of luck!

Property sales are tricky too, because the gain is increased by the deprecation you've taken since you owned it, so the actual gain could be a rude awakening compared to what your expectation was and that's a problem because when I was in college (roughly 100 years ago) , my old Psychology professor taught us that "expectations are pre-planned resentments.Its been a great year for sellers.
