Wait for a bird dog to penny pinch you?

I can see it being helpful in a pinch but would never do this on a regular basis. 

Confidence, hard work, and a pinch of luck to find the deal seems to be the key ingredients!

However, sometimes you have to take a big step back and look at where you are trying to pinch pennies and appreciate whether it's holding you back from being able to move forward.  

I don't know that much about your specific situation, but when you aren't hyperleveraged you usually have some options available in a pinch.

Hi All,Is it just me or everyone is feeling the pinch of increase of property taxes for investment homes in Texas?

A few years ago I could go to McDonald’s get a double cheeseburger and a medium chocolate shake3.50 now it’s 8$ and it takes twice as long to get it Gas was only $1.60 for a short time in the MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC.  

I think those that bought in the last few years for appreciation or with adjustable rate mortgages and had slimmer cash flow/margins are feeling the pinch a bit more.

It's basically a second job.there is no such thing as lucky.you buy only on zip code where demand exceeding supply.like for next ten years, invest in chocolate zip code below.actually it becomes too easy for me even lazy person like me can understand in 3 seconds.  

COVID-19 has reinforced this belief of mine - those who were already stretched due to other debt REALLY felt the pinch when tenants stopped paying, or were simply unable to pay due to lack of employment.
