most investors after a while its not  but for most of the US homeowners it is.. we have to keep in mind that the vast majority of homeowners do NOT own any rentals. 

Yet, people infer Dave Ramsey is some financial demi-God for preaching common sense, and then transfer this over to things so vastly removed such as Real Estate Investing that it's like saying since I am good at driving my car they should let me drive the jet plane I am taking to texas, it's all driving right. 

Either that or Army.Air Force JTAC, so I lived, trained, and deployed with the Army for the vast majority of my career. 

The resources here are so vast that I feel like I’m in an accelerated crash course.

And that can be printed, but the vast majority of money is *loaned into existence*. 

I got my first 5 or 6 investment deals by door knocking (not an agent), until I realized the vast amounts of time I was spending for lack-luster leads.

However, because Iḿ a senior investor now with vast experience and I understand and respect the communities I operate in, I can weed out that element.

The vast majority of the time, I have found that tenants already have an acceptable plan in mind.

Again, I think you're thinking about how the market was a couple years ago, which is vastly different than it is now. 

@Justin Ericsson  I was just commenting on the vast difference's between the markets when it comes to rentals and the tenants there is no question that SEction 8 in the mid west is a key component to the stability of the market place with out it..
