Every task must be completed diligently and on time.If you wing it, you're gonna miss something, you're gonna mess something up.So, be proactive, stay organized, and keep your power team aligned to ensure a successful closing.

Leverage and invest at 40x $100 000 properties ($20k down + $5k closing cost, 30 yeas fix rate loan) with a return of 10% where you have better asset protection (my keeping lower equity and higher bank position), you are hedge against inflation (agree with me, in 30 years $1 000 000 purchasing power will be less compare than $1 000 000 today) Here is how looks mathematically:1. 10% on $1 000 000 (10x $100 000) = $100 000 / annually - No interest tax deduction- No loan paydown benefit2. 10% on 1 000 000 (40x $100 000) = $400 000 / annually - debt service + full tax benefits+ loan pay down+ hedge against inflation for 30 years+ better asset protection (by maintaining lower equity  position)   + (not guaranteed of course) if appreciation happens, it happens on the all full asset amount, example:If appreciate 10%:In case "1" you will have 10% on $1 000 000 = $1 100 000In case "2" you will have 10% on all 40x properties (40x $100 000 = 4 000 000) = $1 400 000As far as cash flow, as long you buy "right" CAP 8% and higher you will have stronger cash flow on leveraged asset + all additional benefits.

There are a couple REIAs in the Tri-State area, but none of them are backed by the power of BP and the incredible people that it tends to attract.

Knowledge is power. 

This is one of the most powerful statute combinations. 

Unfortunately, you have no power over the tenant until you own the property.

California where expenses are really high, versus like Ohio (etc), where expenses are really low.Using leverage is always going to make your buying power go further.  

His God complex and giant ego won't allow him to reflect on the damage he's done  keep in mind if the SEC detects a serious issue and one that could harm investors right now they have the power to take emergency action and shut them down.
