You may have read about my previous enthusiasm of things that came from BP/the Summit, here: http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/223/topics/73622What I didn't know I was looking for was a bunch of houses in the midwest.

It looks like a winnerAnd don't worry a bit about any lack of enthusiasm from your non-investor friends.

@Nathan Boyer good luck to you and i love your enthusiasm.

Even when showing all listings that an agent thinks his client may be interested in, the agents attitude, enthusiasm, etc. can help steer the client to a basically equal listing that is more financially advantageous to the selling agent.Bill

In general, get out of the house and go out and look at a LOT of houses.Your enthusiasm is great.

@Austin HughesI appreciate your enthusiasm as I was in your position many years ago. 

I'm not surprised you're having trouble getting enthusiasm.

I love the enthusiasm.

Right now, I think that will limit you. 25k per year, plus cashflow will make it very difficult to get to 50 units in 5 years, especially using traditional financing options.Hopefully, I'll get to meet you Dec 11, I like your enthusiasm.

I like your enthusiasm and coming from a place of bringing value to the table and not just asking for a mentor.
