They can be lucrative, just look at the owner of the Angels baseball team.

I went to college in Texas for two years on a baseball scholarship...love the state!!!

The connections were fantastic, and overall it was an expensive, but good investment.Compared to this year's PaperSource, I thought IMN was much more big league in terms of crowd/topics/ideas/meetings/etc, but PaperSource was really helpful for me to get my feet wet.Just my 2 cents on the compare and contrast of the last note events I went to...I'm planning on going to Note Expo in November.

In baseball terminology, I would call this a homerun single.

. - Of course I have a lawyer, I have been represented by one since day one on this matter, this is not my first major league at bat.

Single family or even small multi-family is pretty easy and mostly self-explanatory, but the proforma I looked at for this renovation on a large apartment complex with retail space below was WAYYY out of my league.

I purchased a Commercial Property for $130,000 across the street from the baseball stadium. a partner put up all the funds for 50% of the land value, I had a tenant rehab the entire unit in exchange for 6 months of free rent.

It's a copycat league so figured we might eventually see this in CO after watching things unfold in CA and FL. 

So, I'll just add that I didn't intend to say/insinuate that any LU employees or executives were in league with the aforementioned syndicator. 

Buying properties for immediate cash flow is the minor leagues of real estate and fairly simple.
