Is it better to start REI when the market is cold, hot, or either

Lamar Hickley
Posted

I'm a newbie and want to get into real estate investments. As of now, I want to start with either SFH or MFH. I hear statements all the time about WHEN to start REI. My question is does it matter when I enter the market being a newbie?

@Lamar Hickley While in a perfect world, you would buy in a down market, I wouldn't wait for it to happen.  You could lose a lot of time waiting for something that might not happen.
