If you allow non-accredited investors you cannot advertise, or post looking for investors.

You see it in all kinds of advertising and marketing for guru offerings, but when you get down to it, what does it really mean, and how can it impact you? 

This is not meant as solicitation or advertisement of services. 

I have personally advertised in Realty 411 its a real publication and as I stated  Linda I have know for over a decade personally and I am real I have 50 years in the real estate game..

Lots of gurus advertising how easy it is in order to sell a course or whatever else.

She does NO advertising at all not one dime is spent on marketing.

I've never advertised for money, I don't mass market. 

Nouveau Riche is the same even though I don’t think it is a true pyramid (not too sure though) they get you interested by advertising “RE investor looking for apprentice: 20,000.00†If you take the ad at face value one would be led to believe the “investor†was going to pay you a salary to help him with his business and teach you the ropes.

Plane, Train, or Automobile and meet in person.

And you can do it with little cash, 5% down conventional is better than 3.5% FHA.House hacking also gives you a chance to cut your teeth in all major skills: analyzing deals, buying process, financing, working with contractors, advertising for rent, background checks, property management.
