I'm saving money in a REIT and working on my credit to qualify with lenders.

Who cares what some people might think. You can laugh at them on your way to the bank.

I just finished the replay of Matt Faircloth's latest webinar: How To Tap Into Unlimited Source of Private Capital for Private Investing. I absolutely loved it! His focus was on Self Directed Investment Retirement Accounts (SDIRA).

Iv'e learned so much from this webinar(19 pages of notes)! Many of the slides he used, in my opinion would be great presentation tools for educating IRA holders on the advantages of using SDIRAs for real estate investing.

I would say the Rule of 72 was one of my favorite take-away but when he started talking about the perks of being a BP Pro member and that there are IRA custodian firms ready do provide discount services at a discount made my decision to go Pro even sweeter.

Matt's advise on finding, approaching, educating and presenting deals to IRA prospects was, in my estimation, priceless. Just writing this down has me going through my head the people in my circles that may benefit from this service.

I had missed the live webinar so on the replay, I almost skipped the Q&A session. I'm glad that I didn't; was able to glean a few more valuable nuggets from his answers. 

Thank you Matt for sharing your knowledge and experience. Thank you BP for just being here.

From all the experienced investors I've read or heard in the BP universe, the best way to start is to just dive in.

@Frank Patalano

Crowdfunding; I did not think of that. I do have a RET through Rich Uncle's.

@Frank Patalano

Nothing. I've went pro just yesterday and am going to start analyzing properties using the calculators. Looking to build my network and planning to go to the next local REI meeting in Tulsa, OK.

Since subscribing to BP, I've been listening to the podcasts starting with the very first. Working up the list, I've heard so much good information and the encouragement I get from these is immense.

@Dylan Cronkhite

I'm like you; haven't closed my first deal yet but learning and getting closer. How many properties do you analyze a week?

@Justin Lee Frye

I think after raising the NOI, the bank will lend more $.
