He's an all-around fantastic guy, an investor himself, and really understands what investors are looking for.

i was just in Boulder 2 weeks ago and what a fantastic town and college.  

Fantastic story...congrats.... well doneThe only point I would make...and some have pointed out already..... is that there has to be a tipping point where hiring outside management and construction/rehab/maintenance work is the smart business move.

@Neal Royal that's fantastic...I'm glad I shared this.

Our realtor is fantastic, but the foreclosed house is owned by a bank and their realtor is horrible.

As was mentioned, Movement Mortgage is awesome and I have a lender there that I've worked with personally and is fantastic at what he does.

Those who DCA - dollar cost average (and most do into their 401k mutual funds) won't get clobbered as they have been averaging in and over time this will smooth out all the volatility.Most people nearing retirement should be gradually shifting out of equities into something more of a fixed income flavor.Listen, I prefer RE over the stock market, however I have constructed over many years a fantastic stock portfolio of great companies that throws off income (dividends and distributions that grow annually) on a monthly, and quarterly basis that I will utilize to supplement my passive income in retirement...Days like yesterday (and today) are more like buy days, as if you look around you can find great value in these sell off days.

Fantastic info.

If it's permissible, it's a fantastic idea.

Despite having a solid track record of analysis and execution as well as the ability to personally guarantee loans due to a fantastic W2 job, I am struggling to raise capital apart from banks.I would really appreciate some insights from those of you who have felt this same frustration.
