Navigating the real estate info-education world of charlatans and snake-oil salesmen, my goal was to find the folks who were actually teaching and learning by doing.My search eventually introduced me to working class New Yorkers like Eli and Marina, who, seeking a better life through passive income, created the Syracuse Connection which focused on buying property in the frozen tundra of upstate New York.Some believed Syracuse had a promising future as a city looking to reinvent itself.

One of the bits of advice I always give -don't try to reinvent the wheel! 

Don't reinvent the wheel.  

No need to reinvent the wheel today on your own starting from scratch.   

I was sick of reinventing the wheel with every turn and was ready for another brokerage.In the end, I went with a broker who I've known for many years and have an immense amount of respect for.  4 months in and I can say that it was a very good decision.

Account Closed, Why reinvent the wheel? 

I'm exploring a potential development and why reinvent the wheel! 

Answering questions, providing direction....so I don't have to reinvent the wheel...giving support during successes and challenges (like when I insist on reinventing the wheel and it falls off the wagon).I believe a key aspect is that as entrepreneurs there is a part of us that wants & needs to fly solo...but then there are moments to meet up (like here on BP) and fly in formation.In relation to my RE Investing business I have found 1st & 2nd tier mentors through my REIA meet ups, trainings I have attended, and colleagues.

I go to Napa autoparts and I am buying the component.Why in MSOOTKAUG's name would you want to reinvent the wheel when you KNOW carrot sites work.

I was in a very similar position before getting my first property, after getting my first property and again before getting into Real Estate as a career.Glad to hear you're open to book recommendations because the content I consumed during the process of reinventing myself, was a vital part of my progress.1.
