A good first deal.Many times you see the two strategies in the media as polar opposites (the fast, frenetic flip versus the long term buy and hold) but they can share some of the same traits. 

While it's a bit of a sales pitch for his newsletter, I like that he makes use of data from his 5 "vital signs" (Existing home sales, New home building permits, Mortgage loan defaults, Foreclosure sales, Interest rates)  to quantify trends rather than relying on the media and gut feeling to gauge the state of the market.Narrowing down to 5 indicators is maybe an over-simplification, since circumstances will vary in every market, but I like the idea of being able to chart some key indicators and make discussions of where the market might be heading more tangible and less emotional.Is this type of analysis a worthwhile part of a real estate investor's toolkit?

I know the national media has be pretty ugly narrative around our city/fans, but its a beautiful place to live and fun to watch the city unify around sports.

It should also be beneficial for most individuals unless you are a high income taxpayer in a high tax state.I think it's pretty clear that much of the media was ready to pounce on this legislation and totally trash it regardless of what it contained because of their dislike of the Whitehouse.

Publish notices in your local paper, at online resources like Craigslist, the community calendar/website if you have one as well as any social media sites your neighborhood maintains (Facebook, Twitter, etc.).

Looking back 7 years now that was the worst mistake I made is denying investors to buy property because they believed in my integrity and how I was able to buy 10 houses no money down with 25k cash back.

With paid traffic you can target almost everybody in your market, being that Google is the #1 most used search engine and Facebook ranking #1 for the most used social media platform.

I definitely agree with the whole integrity thing between wholesalers and investors.

The home is priced decently and I am even advertising on social media.

Our goal is to run this business with integrity and in such a way that we would be proud to have our name on it.
