If you cant, sinking money into a rate buy down seems to be a fools gold IMO.

Stay away from gurus and people who charge you for their “expertise” in the beginning  so much free info out there  Its exciting to see how investors grow in this journey, and I’m sure you’ll build valuable connections along the way- Bigger pockets is a gold mine. 

You can not do that with many other assets like stocks or gold. they are what they are.

Brass gold is back in.

Big storm blew thru.  Just locking up and checking on things. Double rainbow.  Analyzing doing a new Storage location development. Just have to tighten up the numbers then I’ll post if we go forward.   Keep doing deal...

Unless you can get bids for the work and cost analyze the difference between the work required and the actual bills I wouldn’t go spending thousands of dollars to separate the utilities apart unless that’s the gold standard of your area and besides saving you money is going to increase the value of your property.

Most of our housing stock is 60 to 120 years old and requires a lot of capex, especially the bottom of the barrel properties are typically fools gold, because capex will exceed cash flow over a few years.

Most agents don't know anything about investing (especially the costs of fix and flip), but the ones that do are gold.

Competition..However, most investors are not aware of off-market properties..But not any off-market, the undervalued ones.These Deals are gold..Most investors don’t know how to really get them .Some do direct mail , cold calling , chasing people down and begging for deals.And except to get those deals.The Thing is those deals are not on the radar for a reason.And to get those deals, there is a very simple set of requirements that need to be met and systems that have to be implemented .Once you know these requirements and systems, it's just a matter of executing them properly and with consistency..And the undervalued off-market deals will come to you.It really is that easy….I’ve getting off-market properties for over 3 years now without even working to get them.Like 2 years ago I got this off-market deal and it was just a piece of land in the desert .For real .And I took it for 20k.No one I know didn’t make fun of me.They call me stupid .But I trust the requirements and the systems.Now 3 years later this land is worth almost $700.000 ($642k).It's all thanks to the fact that I can find undervalued off-market properties..And no, I start with nothing and zero connections..But that doesn't matter, because you don't need to have the connections, to be a sweet talker or have millions in the bank.If you’re sick of finding deals .Then all you need to have are requirements and systems to get you off-market deals.But please just don’t think that cold calling is the way.It’s sad.I will write another post about the systems and requirements to get those deals.just be open-minded that there are systems to get off-market deals.And that’s why some investors make millions and some don’t .They have step-by-step systems that guarantee getting those deals.Thanks for reading,

It took years for me to find the right fit with some of our partnership groups, but once you hit gold...game on.
