thats horrible, hopefully you can get some of the cash back. there are just horrible people in this world.

The 15-20 year run people had is gone, so be VERY careful with listening to some of these "real estate gurus." 7.

I think it's fair to say that for some people, reading can essentially be another form of procrastination, just like social media and TV. 

Don't expect these people to have anything to do with you once the transaction is over and a lot of bitter, nasty fights along the way. 

Just know that it is a "no days off" kind of business and very mechanical.I would suggest documenting your process via video so that eventually you can bring people on to replace the different hats you will be wearing.Keep in mind of these 5 components of any wholesale business.lead generation, deal sourcing, underwriting, marketing, transaction coordination.

Mistake #3 was not having knowledgeable people around to be able to ask questions.

This is the fork where I'm not sure if I'd be good to get some CRE exp and invest in learning about how to review deals for the next 2-3 years, or focus on generating revenue for investment purposes and watch how things are done as a LP.My personality more aligns with networking, reaching out to people, connecting, navigating difficult situations and finding solutions that work.

So infilling an income gap via people who can disappear just as easily as appear seems short sighted to me.
