Newly rehab properties aren't immune to maintenance.

The psychology of these 3 day pitch meetings if you don't know what they're doing is this...Supposedly they are giving away free training to implement but they're holding back.And they are "conditioning you very subtly" over those period of 3 days.I've seen this for over 30 years and are fairly immune to their psychological devices.I really believe that "anything of real value" that they're saying can be found here at BiggerPockets.There's so many distractions in real estate investing, there is always a "new shiny object", always "some very urgent and important thing to learn".If more people would just focus on one strategy, or get a coach that's reliable and proven, and listen to that coach and not focus on other things, chances are they would create some profitable business, and be happier and not confused.I think wholesaling and retailing- rehabbing is not a good place for many people.I think learning how to talk to sellers and offering them a cash offer and a terms offer is the way to get started.Terms offers include subject to, wraparound mortgages, lease options, installment sales on free and clear houses, and more.
