FIFTY!

@Joe Martin -- I have a question for you regarding your comment about only one out of fifty looking good on paper.

You could pay a broker to run a BPO for around fifty bucks.

Fifty million sounds like a lot, it ISNT.

One, five, fifty properties?

And, I'm in my fifties now, so not as much time to wait for a financed investment property to appreciate if I had bought it 20 years ago, like I wish I had. 

Later that year we had a different appraiser work on our identical houses across the street, and he valued them at a more realistic $540k, a ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLAR DIFFERENCE.

Have ended up doing some development/new construction kinda by accident, and hope to do a few flips, but plan to end up with a more hands-off approach so we can do more traveling as we are in our late fifties/sixties.

My aunt and uncle have lived there for fifty years and their neighborhood now has blight and they hear gunshots.
