Speaking of Gary Keller, has anyone read his new book SWIFT?

Are there any successful investors out there who don't do it full time? I'd like to start acquiring properties that I can rent for positive cash flow and hold them long term. I've spent some time with a realtor looking at properties on the MLS. I assume there is a lot of competition here as the few "hot" listings that I have seen sell within a week. I own another company (non real estate) that keeps me busy so I can only realistically spend about 10 hours a week on real estate ventures. It seems like buying from a wholesaler could be a good option as someone else is doing the leg work of finding the place for me. The only drawback with that approach is that I would need to find someone I can trust and do business with.

Any insights are appreciated.

Thx

Hey Scott

You can add me to your buyer's list! I'm a new investor looking to purchase rental units in Philly. If you have anything that fits the bill, let me know.

Good luck

I'm looking to buy rental properties that generate positive cash flow. What do people think about buying properties that already have existing tenants? On one hand, it would be great to have someone in the place day one and start cash flow immediately. On the other, I wonder if I'm just inheriting another landlord's problem tenant. Any experiences you can share on the matter are appreciated.

I'm curious if anyone has attended this course and what they thought of it. I find their GetReal podcasts very helpful. Just not sure if the training is worth it or not...
