David Morehead what is your real estate experience ? Do you have any multifamily experience ? Pitching a group of investors on large MF with only an education from a book is not something I would recommend.

If they ask- what is your experience and you said “well I read this book...”.

Put it this way - if you stepped on a southwest flight and asked the pilot his experience and he said “none but I read a book”, would you feel comfortable. Not trying to be a jerk but trying to save you from wasting a lot of time.
