Guru programs - To buy or not to buy
Hi all,
So where do I start? Let's start with telling you a little about myself. I've been in the real estate business for over twenty years now, however in a very passive and novice setting. It wasn't until just recently that I began to actively pursue investing in real estate having made a few buy and hold transactions within the last several months and a flip back in 2011.
So what's this all about? Well I want to learn the business of real estate investing with the objective of being able to stretch the value of my dollar, grow my real estate portfolio and reach financial freedom.
With regards to stretching the value of my dollar, I receive wholesale deals on a daily basis however it seems that most of the deals that come my way fall short in value. Having said, I am thinking about being mentored by one of the local gurus in Houston to learn the business of wholesaling and to improve my flipping know-how. Cost of program? Big $$$.
I am in the Houston market looking for advice, know-how, mentoring, and guidance. I have read more than once on this site "Why pay when all the information is available at no cost through the wealth of knowledge of the BP community".
Having said that, I am looking for guidance, assistance, and opinions. Mentors highly welcomed!
