While these deals were successful, I realized that the cost of using hard money significantly ate into my profits.

I am curious if anyone has had any success using this product.  

On one hand, if a sponsor was that successful in flips (high margin, fast turn), they wouldn't need a fund.  

If you can come in and operate effectively I think you'll find success rather quickly due to that.BTW - for a property management platform I would highly recommend Buildium.

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.You're feeling FOMO because you see people all over BP, YouTube, and Instagram bragging about their success.

You WILL be successful. 

What is the reason that you are not having success?

Nathan I think this is true if your just talking about rental props for landlording.. the last 2 to 3 years have been the best years of my career.. building new builds and Loaning our funds.

They're expensive, but I know several people who have gone thru each program and become what I think are successful investors, moreso than other programs. 

Unless I’m overlooking something, I haven’t been able to find mentors who specialize in helping rookie investors navigate the small multifamily space for properties no larger than four units.If you have any recommendations for helpful programs, coaches, or resources you’ve had success with or heard good things about, I’d greatly appreciate it.Thank you so much in advance, and happy New Year to everyone!
