I drew a lot of inspiration and agree whole heartedly.

The hunger you have is truly inspiring.

It's always inspiring when people post examples of what they are doing.  

But then again, I might be a wee bit biased...

hi Sean we live in Ontario and have been investing in the us for 7 years. we did a lot of looking but are now settled in investing in toledo and Detroit. the numbers are solid and its the easiest place to keep an eyes on things. remote is possible for sure but things seem to go a bit better with a wee personal touch.

Making the point that the average RE investor does not belong in a syndication and should invest directly in properties , C an attorney looking to promote his “ ambulance chasing”business .A - We are experiencing the importance of proper diligence in real life with LPs losing money or having their capital at significant risk.B - None of us want to be average...or would want to be in deals right now where average levels of diligence were performed.C - I'm not in the business...just an investor (in syndications and my own personal portfolio).

Also, listen to podcasts and when a guest mentions a book that inspired them, go buy it (I buy on Audible so I can listen while I walk my dog or drive). 

All of this can be pretty scary for a newbie, so just hearing from people who have been successful is very motivational and inspires me to keep going.Your story sounds very similar to where I'd want to be in the not too distant future.

@Michael GlunkWell, I'm guessing this is a wee bit late for you, but I was just responding to another post about Colorado Airbnb laws and had to track down my post from here.

So far they have been incredibly inspiring and informative (if not at times a little depressing, due to the example prices being so ridiculously low compared to the actual prices in my area!
