Do you think the 1% rule is a good rule of thumb?  It seems to be in Memphis.

Have you ever seen a neighborhood full of duplexes?  We've got a few in Memphis and they aren't the best performing investment in my experience.

Is it smart to pay assignment fees to wholesalers to buy real estate? Listen to @Dean Harris of CrestCore Realty tell me why he thinks it is, especially if you're buying property in Memphis.

If you're an investor and you're not working with wholesalers, @Dean Harris of CrestCore Realty and I believe you need to think again, especially if you're investing in Memphis.
