Find a reliable team, offer fair pay, and keep them motivated to stick with you for future projects.That’s what I have off the top of my head.

I bought this property with a private interest free loan from a friend. the person i bought it from need cash fast so i offered them a low cash offer and they accepted.I had enough money saved up to rehab the house with my savings.

While the market can go up or down in either investment, Real Estate is the only one of the two that offers income opportunities through rental income, that stocks don't, and can often help ride out the storm of market fluxes.Also, the Greater Phoenix market (that includes Scottsdale) historically nets 65K+ Californians per year. 

My last offering was has been a real challenge and Matt has stuck with it for over a year.Never swaying from his commitment to me and my success.You need to be willing to take his advice and work hard but his stuff works.I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who is serious about raising private money.

If someone offered to finance this house to you at your current rates if you put down $250k would you do it?

Coming from a family of lawyers the ones in my experience that make less than that are usually just not that motivated or are not that good at what they do.  

The good news is that real estate offers countless opportunities, even in higher-cost areas, to build wealth and achieve your goals.

But it certainly seems like you're right that BP offers much more in general

I'm just hoping someone with actual knowledge of it can provide some information that offers an alternate explanation.

There is a fine line between offering a well rounded service and leaving too much in the home.I love the business and glad to be a Superhost but this has been my experience.
