investing when real estate prices are really high

[Jeff Libby]

I've always thought that buying low is one of the key factors in successful real estate investing, so what do you do when prices are not low?

I live right outside of Denver and plan on investing in this area, preferably single family and duplex rentals, but I think if I want to get started sooner rather than later I'm going to need to hold off and try getting into a different area of REI.

What are some ways to invest when the market is hot and prices are high?

Find a place where the market is not hot and prices are not high yet.

Be an intern for local investors, like a rehabber or a flipper.

Look for other types of RE investing where the prices are good, like multifamily, apartment complexes, etc.

Become a loan officer for the next few years.

Become a real estate agent / broker for the next few years.
