Place yourself in the shoes of a tenant.

I started off in your shoes wanting to multis but over time my opinion has changed.

"Just Do It" (just dive right in) might be good advice if you're buying a pair of tennis shoes, but it is a terrible idea for starting a business.The bottom line is that you've got to do whatever it takes to learn the basics of the business if you want to succeed.

Your doing a great job keep it up.I was once in your shoes and being a "Finder" took me to the point where i now invest in small notes and make a little better life for my family.My goal is Investing in commercial properties.Dont let the "BigDogs"discourage you.

Put yourself in your nephew's shoes and ask why he might be pissed?

When you buy a note you are standing in the lender's shoes, not that of a real estate investor.

I think we need another shoe to drop to go beyond 4.5% (china implosion, Greek II, etc.).

On the other hand, I've found these are generous people who have been in our shoes at one point.

You seem to think that we have not been in your shoes.

. :)Buy some new, comfortable shoes and start walking and talking, that's worked for over a hundred years!
