:) Guys - for those that are interested to meet a BP celebrity, @Matt Faircloth in person, please join us next Wednesday in the City! 

In doing this, I created a known gaming alias around the league and ended up meeting my wife online, starting my own business teaching others, landed job offers and met some pretty cool celebrities along the way.

Hi All - Although a bit controversial, I will ask the question anyway, as there is really no way to sugarcoat what I have been encountering.  

Cameras are a bit controversial - there have been reports of HOSTS having indoor cameras (which is obviously a violation of privacy for the guest) and will result in IMMEDIATELY shutdown of Airbnb accounts.

All opinions welcome, it seems to be a very controversial topic...

Its a controversial subject, so some people will definitely disagree but I think your wholesale fee should be based on the deal.

Consultants, inspectors, and mentorsProperty managersAssistantsBookkeepers, accountants, and attorneysLandlords if you rent your office spaceYour business partners if you paid them (except if they were strictly lenders)Disclaimer about wholesalers: it is a controversial issue, with some of my colleagues claiming that wholesalers do not need 1099s.

Alan if your worried about this.. simply contact your DRE regulator and ask how you submit your proposed business plan with your proposed marketing etc.. and ask them if what your planning to do is a licensed activity. they will respond in writing if they bless your plan then off you go.. other wise this is state specific and as you know wildly controversial.

This is a common and controversial topic in politics and in urban planning.

It's a bit of a controversial strategy amongst some, but many investors (myself included) use it quite a lot.
