My belief is if you have to throw money at a home to make it affordable you can not afford the home.

The rest is fluff, people promoting themselves, people who are desperately locked in a fantasy that they're big time successful real estate investor, or people who are no good at conveying complex information, or just people who should have the simple sense not to write half the posts they do.Send me a message.

My belief is that anyone that is involved in the deal has to bring value. 

@Caleb Heimsoth the worrisome part is I can’t tell if it’s a scammer or the real guru promoting these deals.

I try to pay attention to the rules, but a couple of times I've stepped over the line of "self promotion" without really thinking about it.One of the best parts of BP is that they don't allow spamming. 

Then I kindly explain to the potential renter that the rent stated is only a promotion for the first month.             

I know the forum doesn't allow searching for mentors or promoting services.

I'm an REI newbie and have been talking to several MF syndicators and have learned they mostly use IRR when promoting their offerings.

On posting our idea / problem we are looking to solve, I wanted to make sure I wasn't crossing the 'solicitation' or promotion line of the forums vs the marketplace. 

Faith is a belief that is not supported by proof.
