There is also a lot of activity in my facebook group, and it's all about MTR.

I bet, when you started investing,  this day seemed so far off it was silly.

i am totally impressed with the way 'guru' out there trying to influence people promising there's a gold cave somewhere from 'infinite banking' to 'my own the greatest system ever' :-) I bet they save their money in the crypto token as well.

To me, if you aren't at least maintaining 0 cash flow, you're betting too much on appreciation to the investment work. 

If you are having that much activity but cannot find the right tenant than you will want to lower the price just slightly to entice better tenants OR you can relax on your qualifications.

Hi All, As an active investor in syndications, I'm curious to hear about recent performance across the community.

Neighbors activity or their poor unit maintenance affecting your unit or tenants.

Under the same scenario, a GP with a fixed percent return would probably make the choice to sell and take profits because they would see the 20/80 decision as a bad bet. 

Hey Bigger Pockets community, I'm just starting out in Step 1 (get educated) on what I want to become a successful career in real estate investment.I also currently run an e-commerce business that is currently completely online, but would benefit from having a brick & mortar storefront, and I had an idea that maybe using the investment capital I'm looking to allocate into real estate into a commercial property my business can operate out of until I decide to sell the property in or rent it out to another business.I am obviously very naive when it comes to the complexity of any good real estate deal (especially commercial VS residential), but I'm hoping to spend as much time learning from everyone here who is on their journey as well.My main concern with the idea of buying commercial to operate my business out of it that I might struggle to rent it out afterwards and that there may likely be depreciation in the commercial real estate market over the next 5 years.I understand there is a lot of nuance depending on the local market but I'm guessing commercial is even less of a "safe" bet than finding a solid residential deal to leverage in some way.

I'm willing to bet that there are more instances of contractors burning investors than the other way around.
