@Account ClosedYes, real estate can and is a challenging pursuit. It can be smooth sailing and then suddenly the wheels fall off.  I love real estate but it can be very stressful at times.  There is much to learn, but it don't stop there.  You have to take action on what you have learn and learning.  Also you figure the your right why for yourself that will allow to keep it moving along when things get frustrating or overwhelming.  Sometimes a timeout is necessary when you get weary.  A timeout mean a break in the action.  It mean a time to recover to get yourself back into the moving forward mode.  Stay around encouraging people and away from discouraging personas in person or online.  Also setting dates you want to have invested or adding to your portfolio.  Lastly take risks, but make sure it risk that you can handle financially even if things go south.
