A little about myself, I'm an entrepreneur in my late 20s born and raised in Baltimore, MD.

A good source of help for setting up your business is also an organization called SCORE, which is made up of retired executives giving their time for FREE to help you, the budding entrepreneur.

It is awful for me to loose that much money, but I was stupid to follow advice from 30 year old successful entrepreneurs that think nothing of loosing $10,000.

I am an entrepreneur and CEO of a landscape contracting company for 12 years and a Purdue business grad (2010).

I will be asking lots of questions along the way, hopefully there are some members here that wouldn't mind sharing some information with a young entrepreneur..My goals are to build a reasonable multifamily portfolio in the western communities of Cleveland.  

Self-motivated entrepreneur.

Honestly as an Entrepreneur/Real Estate Investor myself I've learned to delegate my duties and save time rather than have to deal with the renting of my properties.

If you fail to do that before taking investors money or think you have a way around it and you lose somebody's money it is likely you'll be put in jail for it.On Shark Tank entrepreneurs are selling ownership shares in their businesses not realty syndications.

Account Closed is right that because so many people want to live here, us entrepreneurs still manage to make a buck notwithstanding our government's best efforts to the contrary.let's focus on things we agree on, and keep the personal attacks out of it. 

I wanted to share our story and generate some discussion from other real estate companies or entrepreneurs who are wanting figure out how to use BiggerPockets to develop brand awareness and stimulate business.
