Disclaimer: I have not taken the Epic Pro Academy course, but I attended Matt's 2 day workshop last year.Matt Theriault's 2 day events, which they are somewhat different than the Epic Pro Academy, I believe, since the information is compressed in only 2 days.Nevertheless, lots of practical information is offered, besides instructions and information about the industry, the insights that Matt provides and how they relate to one's approach to business relationships in general, they have value on their own.What I can say about him and his team is that you truly get what they offer, but like with any course, the course is as good as you are by implementing what is been taught.

Hello Bigger Pockets Community,I'm an investor with experience in commercial and industrial spaces, now moving into residential land development in Georgia and the Carolinas, focusing on large tracts up to 100 acres.

In this industry, ignorance can be risky, so having a mentor is key to success.

I’ve heard you should factor in:Strengths WeaknessesWantsOpportunitiesMy strengths are that I’m handy (I’ve been fixing things on my own home since 2021) and I work in industrial & commercial HVAC so I would add value with labor. 

Also think about strong economies with diverse industries.

I recognize the invaluable role that lenders, property managers, wholesalers, and licensed contractors play in the success of any real estate venture, and I am eager to collaborate with individuals who share my passion for achieving excellence and prosperity in this dynamic industry.

I have a background in commercial construction and industrial development and have recently gotten into real estate with the goals of starting my investment journey. 

Next ten year growth could be Milwaukee LOL The thing is for median income to still rise linearly, there needs to be industries pending here.

@Sandrene SmartHonestly not trying to be mean but if you do not have $ for the EMD you should not be buying real estate as it’s a very cash intensive industry and you need $ for real estate
