What was said around it

now I've just broken even on my money. Now yes, I realize this somewhat contradicts what I just said about not caring about the market value of a property, but that doesn't mean I still can't get a good deal and try to make some money on paper if at all possible. And I still care about doing my best to make money because that's extra money that I can use towards buying something else or use towards a renovation or just have more money left over to go and spend on iced coffee. Point being, in this market or any market in general, I am just looking for value. I want something in an area that I believe is going to be going up in value. I want something that I can add value to, and I want something with eventually a strong rental demand. I know it's a tall order here, but it's out there somewhere, eventually, with enough patience. And that brings me to my current experience looking for a property, and that would just be patience. For the last 2 months, I've spent several hours a day looking at every single property that comes up within a 6-mile radius of mid Los Angeles. I track every property that comes on the market, every property that has a price reduction, every property that enters
