No Time.Thinks that there is a shortcut to wealth, and that there is a path to wealth other than producing more than one spends or giving their heart, mind, and soul to the creation of an asset/business that will consume them for years.

They are educating the consumer that there are dozens of investors that want to buy my house for cash, so they now have choices, and wholesalers are often overpaying.I would concentrate on gap cities/counties in between larger metros.
