I don't want to fall into the trap of buying because I feel I have to, but that said I've got cash sitting around drawing 0.01% that I need to do something with and this seems to be the best in my area, other than a distressed property I'm planning to snatch up if the current under-contract falls through.  

They also add depreciation back to the formula since that is a non-cash expense and they are really looking at cash transactions.I actually had a client recently sit across my desk from me and say "We're trying to go for a mortgage, so we need our income to be as high as possible.  

I was hooked, found the Bigger Pockets Podcast, and thanks to Uber's non-stop sitting in the car environment, I've listened to over 100 episodes of the podcast in just 3 weeks. 

I'd tend to steer people away from the practice rather than coach on how to do it -- there are better business models that are focused on adding value that I'd rather see people embrace.My meetup is really about sitting down and talking nuts and bolts, and, while I am agent, property manager, contractor, etc, I don't host the meeting to sell you anything nor do I charge anything to join, which many other meetups do.

No we have been sitting on it, but reached out to the Agent today for a viewing hopefully this weekend. 

Tim, I think GA REIA is great and I joined them 25 years ago, but it's no longer for me, because I live south of Downtown and I'm simply not willing to sit in traffic for hours.

That is not meaning that we play the market by any means but we are seeing various market trends right now that we are trending right now back to the higher end of where we envision our fund sitting.

Sitting on the sidelines with a pile of money is nerve racking, but needing the money and not having it can be much worse. 

@David Zheng I'm the really boring guy who would say "run it for a year like it sits and see how it performs". 

I have a total of $40,000 sitting liquid to cover problems on the three properties.
