Most people in the coaching or mentor world either couldn't hack it in the actual world of investing or have ulterior motives to why they are doing it. 

Otherwise, it feels like you're trying to go about this deal in a roundabout way, and kind of plants the seeds of an ulterior motive right up front. 

I wish the person talking to me would've been upfront, because at the end I felt betrayed like he/she had ulterior motives.

Others would probably cynically point out the ulterior motive behind spending $300 on a party that increases the likelihood that 20 or so tenants will stay even when we raise the rent by $50 each.

The reason it's important to evaluate the market on your own is because someone recommending such-and-such market may have ulterior motives without your best interest in mind.

They probably have ulterior motives.

Most of the stuff thats out there on youtube or facebook and even some of the podcasts is created not to educate you but to ultimately convince you to buy someones program, app, mentoring service etc. which for me makes their info suspect because they have an ulterior motive.

First, if it's true that you're just trying to inform people and have no ulterior motives, my recommendation would be to just videotape the presentation or do a webinar (so people can still ask questions) -- that would essentially be free, you'd get the word out and you wouldn't lose money. 

If an attorney tells you that you can't do something without an attorney you can probably assume they have an ulterior motive.

You may have an ulterior motive in doing so, but you don't have to shove it in her face.
