Formulate a plan to not only cash flow, but to put the cashflow on auto pilot.5.Work on my business not in my business.

And, if you had the right mentor, more like one of the investors Mike Oh suggested, reather than a guru-type mentopr, that could be very helpful. but you will learn just as much by reading all the posts in the forums on this site (for free), asking alot of questions of us and of the investors in your REI club, formulating a plan and taking action in order to learn by doing.

Like the others said, formulate about five or ten questions that will screen them out, including:-Why are you selling?

Don't worry, you will make it as a real estate investor if you stick with it, formulate a workable plan and take action.

Come network, strategize, problem solve, and learn from other investors from around the country once a week for 8 weeks.

But beyond just having a website and leading traffic to it, I think it's important to use strategic, well-planned internet marketing strategies to drive traffic to increase your likelihood of selling the property.

I'm still formulating my strategy but thing more along the lines of buy, & hold.

Again, Flipper, you have managed to skirt the issues I brought up and stick mainly to the insults on me. 90% of your post that clarified your first post was aimed and calling me 'clueless' and 'ignorant' rather than examining or answering the questions I brought up.Sorry man but I don't consider your cheap shots, one-liners and strategically capitalized words real responses.But keep up the good work of posting extremely irresponsible statements and then when questioned, attacking the character of the person asking for an explanation.As much as you would like to think, the world front is not Candy-Land right now.

It is always nice to see people formulating ideas to help others!

Rich,Hope you enjoyed your recent cruise.Some of your plan sounds similar to the content from Ric Edelman's book "The Truth About Money", which I know you recommend.Was any of your estate plan formulated before you read Edelman?
