Message:: [QUOTE="WoodyWW, post: 1369884, member: 26001"]Yeah, in certain places, RE is probably a good buy now. I even heard Marc Faber recently on Bloomberg TV talking about what a good value Arizona RE is at current prices. And you can get a positive cash flow, if you do it right. Even in my expensive area, metro-Boston, a 2 or 3 family property could be a good buy now.  But, you have to be young enough, & have enough energy, to deal with it. I never had a property management company deal with my rental properties, but if the tenant stops paying, or something expensive breaks, still, the landlord has to  deal with it. I do like the idea of buying into asset classes that are cheap, & where you have income, & not buying into the hottest investment that's already gone up 500-600%.....  Too many people now have the idea that there's only "one sure way" to  make money now (usually PM), IMO.....[/QUOTE]
