Hey folks,I hope you're all doing well with your investing.

Have a VA call your list and try to find folks willing to sell.I'm not doing this for land, but it's generally what I'm doing with other properties I'm interested in.

My offers are getting beat by folks who have some magically optimistic pro form apparently and it's not worth jumping in for sub par returns and tenant headaches (or PM headaches).

Hello BP folks in the UPNY area.

If you are circled with folks that's 10x smarter (and wiser) than you, then you may get good result in any investments.It's really not about "2 or 3 years". 

And even then, those really experienced folks are able to raise capital by hiring intermediaries (aka brokers) who are specialists at putting together the capital stack (equity/cash from the LP/investor + debt/lender + co-invest from the GP/developer). 

So, for me if I was setting up shop here is my schedule of fee's for managing.D F Class basically asset management my folks need to be armed to do their job.       

That's not supposed to happen (according to a bunch of folks on Bigger Pockets).

In my experience a lot of folks hesitation for getting into real estate as a wealth creating medium is the hefty amount of cash you need for a down payment.

Now we have all sorts of fake lenders trolling SM sites promising the moon telling folks what they want to hear and scamming them out of small and Big dollars some of these folks lose 10s of thousands to these folks.. with the  line  " Hey its going to fund next week just need another 5k for some BS item"
