Vent! Why is real estate investing so shady!?!?

[Elizabeth D.]

I’ve been wanting to become a real estate investor for years now. I have 2 rentals that I did through traditional mortgages but am craving more. BUT EVERY TIME I try to learn more about different ways to actually become an investor, I hit a SCAM or system or guru. It’s so frustrating! I get that people want to be paid for their time/system/product but it’s so annoying to do your due diligence only to find out you just wasted time and got your hopes up. At least I dodged a bullet before handing over the credit card. ugh! Had to vent.
