Some post here on the Bigger Pockets Marketplace.

I've posted  this before but hope this helps dissuade you from relying on this technique:Expenses disproportionately impact lower rent collecting properties.

Go to meetups, post on Indeed, go to HD in the early hours, etc.

(If curious, my residential real estate investor clients from 10 years ago [you can find my 10 year old bigger pockets dot com posts :], at the time buying up 2-4 unit properties, a lot of them are now done with the 'human' tenants and want to 1031 into something that is ACTUALLY passive, so yes Starbucks comes up, thus I watch it).In my case I zoomed all the way into a specific brand (which then allows me to make very sweeping generalizations across an entire state -- but still not the entire country), I'm not suggesting you do that, but SOME of the variables need to be narrowed down, before you can gain any useful insights. 

Just to clarify after reading what I originally posted, I would be getting a building loan from a bank that is convertible at the end of the build, not financing it cash from my pocket.

I just starting to get active in Bigger Pockets and saw your post today.

He threatened me if I'm not paying him he gonna put lien on my property, I've never encounter these thing in my whole life...He seems very cold blood and likes to take his client to court or put lien on the property, looks like he had done these stuff many times in his career...I just don't suggest you to work with him for the below reasons:1.He is never willing to communicate about the project progress and he just notify you that you have to pay for next-phase otherwise he will STOP the work and take all the stuff out2.He will never take responsibility on warranty or the stuff he had done, if you ask, that is all your fault, and you have to pay your own bills3.Finally if nothing of these lightly threaten works, he will say: "I will give you 3 days, if you don't pay me, I will put lien on your property, I will take you to the court"I never done business into this situation in my whole life, but it looks like that's how Robert Mincey makes money and if you work with him, you will probably end up like me with tons of sleepless nights...If there are any chance, in the future I will post my whole experience while working with him.Hope this helps!

They read some posts, maybe listen to an audiobook, and tell all their "friends" on Call of Duty that they will be the next Grand Cardone.

I have posted my closings, my personal life ( piano, dogs, etc), and reviews that I have.
