Who brings the money is one of the biggest decision makers when it comes to selecting an offer.

But you will need to locate the distressed situations and contact the decision makers directly.

My life's decisions were severely impacted by the debt I carried from college and grad school.

The most important decision you will make is the location, not the property.

I have liquid cash that I can lean on if need be; however, the lack of cash flow is not the best financial decision.

I have zero regrets of my decision.Below are some of the reasons that I made my decision.1) I purchased my property for 10% below FMV(appraisal vs purchase price). 

I think @John Barrett made an important point; whether or not you want to own the existing asset.I had a similar decision to make 6 months ago; take the big cash vs cashflow and keep the asset.

I live in the Pacific Northwest, I'm a bit priced out of the market, I'm attracted to buying a duplex or fourplex in some state in the Southwest or Southeast where I can better afford to buy, I would like to move there and live in one of the units, but it seems like an overwhelming project to decide where to buy it seems there are a lot of factors involved and it's difficult for me to come to a decision.

Investors - I'm torn on making a decision here and am curious how some of you would handle this situation. 

Today I set forth a huge decision.
