At the conclusion of the session, the gentleman proceeded to talk about how he makes 10 grand for every person he invites into the group and that the classes will teach me all I need to know for only 20 grand.

I find out who is leaving for Summer and then try to rent out the vacancies to Summer session students.

Thanks again for ANOTHER Pueblo "bashing" session after you said you don't bash Pueblo.

The Tenant now has the resolve to fall down the stairs and test exactly how strong your lease and insurance is when they claim the landlord's at fault, or disable the fire alarms claiming they haven't worked in months and you did nothing about it, regardless of what your lease says as to who is responsible for maintaining them, god forbid they start an 'accidental' fire and now your insurer is looking to you as to why the smoke alarm was disconnected not wanting to pay out; you may get some of your $ back out after countless court sessions, time wasted and $$$$ for your lawyers to justify it all for you and set it straight, completely cutting hard into whatever investment strategy you may have had. 4 - Just because you put it in a lease, review it with them, have them sign it, have them take a picture with it, get their DNA on it... does NOT make it legal.

I was at J martins Oakland event and during my break out session I was asked about crowdfunding and one of the folks in my session had invested with POL.. and his experience was.. made the investment NEVER got one payment that was 2 years ago and the property is finally going to sale.. this was FLA... typical 2 year foreclosure time line.. 

@Nathaniel Birdsong I recommend you attend the local REIA and the Greensboro Deal Maker Sessions to network with like-minded REIs.

Join Triangle Deal Maker Sessions (go to Meetup and type in Triangle Real Estate Deal Maker).

You should go to the deal maker sessions.

Sit in some Landlord/Tenant Court Sessions to see what goes on.7.

I believe there is also a Deal Maker Session meeting not too far from you.Good luck!
