After well over 1000 houses it’s proved it’s worth.BUT if you think sugar coating will work sprinkle sugar all over the conversation. certainly nicey nice communication and unabashed laughter will get you elected but it won’t buy many houses. our product is money and we best not forget that. there’s a power exchange happening in every conversation and the one who blinks first fails unless winning isn’t important.  

When you're consistently sharing valuable insights, educational content, and even a sprinkle of your own personality, potential investors start envisioning themselves partnering with you.

So let's see we have no achieved RAISING the cost of entry real estate by $25k, ADDED more tax's to the populace, but hey, that sprinkling of the 1 demographic, they thank you for that $$$$.

My personal theory is that it's a combination of a hot market and inundation of the SMS space with new investors, with some carrier blocking sprinkled in.  

If you put it out there asking for a 3-5 year lease with a small business or startup in your mind, but H&R Block or Supercuts comes along asking for a 10 year NNN (& it's corporate) and agrees to the rent amount you requested, there's no reason not to entertain that, you got better than what you were expecting (there's a reason NNN properties, or ones with a few NNN tenants sprinkled in that are national chains, often sell for lower cap rates), it's not like taxes or hair cuts are going obsolete any time soon. 

I have had years to think about this having owned a nice slug of A class IE brand new construction in the best school district in the state. and over 300 C and D class with a sprinkling of B class.from Jackson MS to Detroit and many cities in between and on both coasts... 

I went into the course assuming I was paying $10k for a streamlined acquisitions process but what i got was two days of narcissistic self-aggrandizing guru garbage, a “mind map” that looks like it was thrown together, 34 “strategies” that can be found for free on BiggerPockets sprinkled with juuuuuust enough guru gimmick word vomit and hand waving to impress the eager and inexperienced, several of which were repulsive and absolutely predatory..Instructing students who get their offers turned down by a seller to walk out of the appointment, get in their car and blast out the property out to cash buyers anyway..  

@Geoff Eckert  there can be a very wide gap between C and B  forget the minus and the plus.so it could be luck of the draw it could street to street your C could be C today and meltdown to D rarely do these neighborhoods come up  they for the most part go down.were as solid A and B can maintain as you have a nice sprinkling of owner occ and sales to owners.Were as anything under that is pretty much only being sold to investors. 

I now have mostly B and C assets, with a light sprinkle of C- and may be a D, that I recently acquired in an area that will surely gentrify quickly.

@Justin SegarraThere are a handful of us here in the forum that House Hack MTR by the room on FF (and other sites) and the informative conversations are sprinkled throughout, so I recommend doing a keyword search here.
