.- Working a W2 as a firefighter, posting and consuming content- Leaving my W2 to dive deep into real estate investing and working as an agent... and still watching/posting content all while business was ok - Deleting social media apps (one have one on my phone that I use 10 minutes or less a day), diving deep into building my business and skills which have drastically increased due to pure focus and increasing my business significantly- moral of the story... focus on the things you need to do in business (dollar productive activities) and life experiences while reducing consumption will increase your success  

Make them build them, so they own them. 

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

-Build a strong network in Detroit of real humans over a period of months, buy a better deal, hold it for 10+ years, weather early storms:  better chance for success.Even on that latter deal though, are you going to cash flow in month 1 or year 1 or even year 5? 

we underwrite 10% land cost to finished build value.

I pay for internet for the whole building but I'll split the charge between units and charge each tenant double my cost. 

And the truth is, it’s hard to pinpoint because Detroit is such a block-by-block city with an incredibly large footprint.

What a great start to building wealth!

In the long run, I want to build a portfolio that will bring in cash flow.Would be great to connect with all types of professionals who work in the area.

I just spoke with one DST broker (Realized 1031) and they said that most sponsors that they work with kind of add the loads to their total costs, so all of your investment is put to work, although at a possibly higher building cost.
