Plenty of well-positioned restaurants with great food and great service have failed just because they didn't get enough traction before the promoters ran out of money.If you buy multifamily real estate, however, you're buying an existing income stream.

Contrary to popular belief, companies (even A+ ones) do go bankrupt and the triple net lease goes away.

It was more motivational than practical, I don’t feel like I could flip houses as easily as they promote at this point, they do upsale the software and the advanced training as essential but you would have to invest more money 

In fact, very rarely do I find Investors from BP promoting the way I invest.

(And just in case you were wondering, I'm not promoting myself in the least with this post, as I personally don't engage in general brokerage outside of immediate family/friends.

It is factored into all your possible exit strategies.If you are of the belief that bankruptcy is in any way a option going in then you do not have what it takes to be a successful investor.

However, you cannot use any means of general advertising or solicitation to promote the offering.

I'm an Army vet myself (medically retired last year) and my brother is a C-17 pilot.This is slightly off topic, but one of the best things I did in my career was every time I got a raise or promotion, I socked that money away because I figured I lived on that pay last year, I can this year, too. 

You need to build relationships with others and determine your own best path, but don't let your pre conditioned beliefs hold you back

Don't fall into the false belief that a wholesaler is the only type of person who sells distressed properties.
