Decision Time, Going All In
Good morning Bigger Pockets!!
Well, after some positive messages from my fellow Canucks I have decided that I'm going to jump into real estate investing. So, being the good husband I am I told my wife before I even told you. This was not met with the positive response I imagine I will receive from the forum.
My mistake is that I took my wife a few years ago to see a guru's real estate "seminar" where we sat through hours of presentations designed to entice people into buying a real estate courses. My wife has very low risk tolerance, and after this experience thinks that real estate investing is a scam. She is very worried about buying a single family residence where we discover huge issues that eat up end up costing us 150% of the house value by the time you are done paying.
I don't have the answer yet about what to do when your flip turns into a nightmare. Would I be able to get some exit strategies from experienced flippers so I can ease my wife's concerns?
Thanks everyone!
Kenny
