Welcome to BP @Alan Malicse You mentioned a mentor so check out this post How to Find a Mentor If you think it is awesome as Paul's links leave a comment.I think Scott Scheel is a very good presenter and I enjoyed his boot camp.

I work full-time as a camp director and have become enamored by the idea of real estate investing on the side.

@Jason Mak i'm usually more in the "don't rock the boat" camp (to a point, anyway), but it really depends on the situation.

Then there are those that learn better alone (the BP site is great for them) vs. those that need to learn in a group setting (will get the most benefit from REI clubs, boot camps, and a bona fide subject matter expert, aka gurus).Good listeners can usually identify the basic learning preference of a person fairly easily and quickly:Someone who says "I see what you mean" is probably a visual learner.

My point is that I feel most investor owner financed mortgages will fall into the high cost camp.

Don't know if Buddy has, but I have dealt with both PR's and heirs located outside the U.S.It used to be more of a hassle: for my first international deal I had to overnight physical docs to principal signer.

You picked one of the most beautiful villages in the state to set up camp.

My mother, son, and I stayed overnight before the tenant moved in and I am very pleased with the property.  

His reply was that he did those things for fun and didn't count them as part of his actual 4-hour workweek.I also love the quote, "It takes 20 years to become an overnight success."

Regarding him coming back and setting up camp, you leveled the shed, right?
