If I were you, I would exploit the experience with architecture and pursue a MS in Real Estate Development with an emphasis in public works/government and or developing raw land into communities.

can't stand that show, her voice actually annoys me. i wouldn't go to any of their seminars, they probably can't make it in the business and that's the way they make money, TV made them famous not them dealing in real estate, i am sure there are a lot more successful people out there than them, it just happens they got there foot in the right door and they are exploiting that as much as they can. ( Don't blame them for wanting to make money how than can) but its at a cost of others dreams.

The only way this makes sense is if they're looking to exploit / upsell / or their method simply doesn't work.This brings up an interesting question though.

Find a niche and exploit it. 

It's about knowing a niche or exploiting a market inefficiency. 

They ignore major flaws in the comps, yet exploit any flaw they can find in your property.

The politicians will use it for leverage, posture, and act appalled, but will not ultimately change it ... or if they do change it they will open up an even bigger loophole to be exploited, as instructed by the authors of the tax rule.

Also there are a lot of property managers who will exploit your naivete and the long distance between you and the property. 

If you did not need to invest in RE but you had the opportunity to do it as a diversifier and to exploit other benefits from it and you would want to use your money and your time in an efficient way.I really appreciate your advice. 

Why is her name in the BiggerPockets and trying to exploit people .
