I predict that the guys who are fully leveraged and cash flowing $100 per month will be motivated sellers when the next big correction happens.actually its either them or they walk and its their lenders selling that is what happened in that time period.. and was pronounced in certain markets.for me personally  I don't want to risk  my credit and finances and borrow 75k to make 1200 a year... or even 2400 a year if its a market that has a history of no appreciation and I don't feel there is going to be any significant appreciation.. 2 to 3% a year does not cut it.but I will take 500 a month negative or 10k a month negative if I think there are huge gains at the other end.. 

Like me, you’ll quickly discover it’s not a walk in the park.

Window handles broken were called out during that walk through.

How did it feel walking into that closing room, knowing you were about to own your first investment property?

Most people would walk away after something like that, but he used the experience to build his expertise and now owns 50+ units.

I do not care if he drives a Chevy, a motorcycle or walks to the shop. 

Sometimes, you have to walk away.

Have walked him through the financials and the numbers are to big for him to comprehend.

My goal is to become a successful investor and eventually build wealth through real estate, and I’m hoping to find mentorship and guidance from those who’ve walked this path before me.If anyone has any tips, advice, or would be open to sharing their experiences, I’d love to connect!

The thing that the gurus never tell anyone is that the majority of creative finance deals are done by investors who don't need creative financing, that is their leverage and why they can walk away, thereby making them more attractive then the one person who can only do the deal one way because they have no money of their own.
