Investors who recognize and capitalize on opportunities might thrive even in uncertain times.Real estate investments might be a great way to generate passive income and build long-term wealth.

I firmly believe there's always opportunity wherever we are, we just may not always recognize it.With that being said, yes there are certain markets that have great growth metrics and are widely known as some of the top investing markets but ultimately you need to decide on a market and location that makes the most sense to you.As of right now I've only invested in Arizona.

See - that's why you are @J Scott :)Newbies listen up: it is important to recognize all of the value centers in a particular proposition.

Don't include photos of the outside of the home or photos that she will quickly recognize.

At times, I have been "disregarded" because I wasn't known as the owner, it didn't bother me one bit....Most of the tenants recognize me as a representative on the behalf of the owner.

Maybe, but you're taking a big gamble that the person you are working with is taking shortcuts to get there.

I also recognize that anything less than a 3 unit multi-family seemingly will not generate any cashflow and a 3 unit is currently going for no less than 600k in the areas where I would like to purchase. 

I don't think you should gamble on further appreciation at some point the market will have some type of correction but not a crash.

Off market does not automatically mean good, on deal on market does not always mean bad.Last point, if you are looking to sell it for more eventually, and you've done your research and believe that the higher price you established can truly support it for a buyer down the line, then just know you are taking a gamble here.

I recognize that my biggest problem right now is knowing what to say and this seems to be the MOST common response that I get as a result of my marketing.
