I have studied brokerage behind two top brokers in the industry since entering and am currently partnered with one.Before brokerage, I worked for two unique gentlemen in Los Angeles who own bars, restaurants, hotels, movie/tv production groups and promoting groups.

It's a serious, serious waste of time and money (I'm being redundant here, I know)I've assigned slightly over 75 lease option deals in 10 different states, and not once have I ever spent a dime of money marketing my deals (okay, this might be a bit of a stretch, because I've spent money on local proxy IP's and local phone numbers to create a new craigslist phone verified account, in order to keep my deals live on craigslist without getting ghosted by them, but that's a much deeper discussion).It is incredibly easy to find lease option buyers.

I like taking photos of things that don't move, but every property I've done has unique challenges that I've had trouble overcoming.

My story isn't all that unique from many on this website.
