Thanks for your question - Controlling real estate is the highest financial leverage one can ever achieve in real estate - Control & Roll is a system created by me from pure frustration with being a real estate sales person (broker/agent) - I needed to GET OUT OF CONVENTIONAL  real estate - there were too many gate keepers, buyers, sellers, appraisers, underwriters, banks, mortgage brokers and others who didn't care if you made a buck or not, if you helped your client or not, just too many ways to stop a sales from going to settlement ------- I had to find another way to make money in real estate without those regulations stopping me - cutting-off my income and making me crazy -----I wanted a system where I got paid full commission without contingencies, without inspection requirements and a way to sell real estate for all cash without having to mess around with FHA or other loan products or appraisals.So ----- the birth of Control & Roll - simply put C&R is a way of negotiating real estate with a skinny offer subject to a public auction.

Thursday I have security bars installed and a 10 foot gate installed in the east (10') fence wall, and my friends are bringing the rest of the stuff from the other house.

Think about all the disparaging things you've heard about people like Bill Gates, or Martha Stewart or the guys that made and then sold Youtube.com.

I guess if you aspire to be Trump out of the gate yes you need a "team" but if your a small fry you need your tool belt and craiglist to list your rentals.

Not sure what you put down, but i like to put the minimum down and cash flowing right out the gate. 

Good tenants aren't going to want to stay in those really bad areas except ones that have no choice.If this is a larger complex installing a fence around the place and an electronic gate at the entrance helps keep criminals out.

Black River and Calcium are great towns as they are literally right outside the main gate and for the most part not run down at all.

Ironically, people never think of that area but Bill Gate's firm is investing just west of there in the city of the future.   

All my work was in gated communities.

That’s why people in winning positions sell to take money off the table, like Bill Gates selling bits of Microsoft.
