Great article, Corey. Wish I had started when I was 25 instead of 40 (5 years ago but who is counting). mck

I like the idea. Since we are into housing, BP could support Habitat for Humanity or something like that. mck

We moved to find better cash flow in a city with a lower cost of living but moving is not for everyone.

One suggestion is to look for awhile before you make your first purchase. You might try coming up with a timeline of sorts. You could research your city, other cities and MBA programs for the next 3-6 months. Give yourself a deadline and stick to it.

Good luck with your decision making process. mck

Tak,

I enjoyed meeting you at the conference. I am fascinated with your international real estate investing, international depreciation plays and foreign exchange techniques. Glad you came all the way to the conference. mck

Thanks again, Tod! I appreciate you setting up the transportation from the airport for our group. Look forward to seeing everyone at the Summit.

I just bought a new home and have been in the throes of packing and unpacking so I haven't responded sooner. Thanks. mck

I'd like to know more about the "Pitch Your Deals & Financing Room" at the Summit. Is there a specific day and time allotted for using this room? How will the room be set up? What exactly will happen there?

I'm looking forward to the conference. Thanks. mck

I have a room reserved and would love to share with you. By the way, I speak Mandarin Chinese and grew up in Gainesville. I arrive on 3/22 and depart on the 26th.

I'll pm you. Xie xie! mck

I moved from Bozeman, Montana to Chattanooga, Tennessee. I tried to buy rentals in Montana and couldn't easily find properties with good returns. I ended up buying in Tennessee and eventually moving there.
