Great point on 0% for appliances purchases, I haven't thought of that. 18 - refrigerators12 - ranges12 - dishwashers2 - chest freezers8  - laundry pairs (stackable, front-load, HE washers)all paid for out of cash flow using 18 - 24 months of 0% financing 

I recently launched my marketing campaign and paired up with a seasoned investor to help him grow his business.

That paired with the knowledge gained from Biggerpockets is what interested me in the niche.

I've met some incredible people who I am proud to call friends.Another advantage is the accountability that Ted mentioned before - pairing up with someone and reporting updates to a group will put a little bit of friendly pressure/fire under you to maximize your potential and not give up when you hit a bump in the road.

for starters take that 300$ investment your mother is going to hand over and go and buy a nice pair of slacks, shoe's and a long sleeve shirt.

I just saw a pair of duplexes in Sanford hit the MLS and go under contract in two days.

Then pair that with a personalized mail piece and watch your direct mail ROI increase =)

They bought the newest iPhone, a $200 pair of shoes, a new car, or other material item.

To keep things simple, just use business credit as the down payment portion when pairing it with bank\private financing.

The cash buying advantage goes well when paired with my next point.2.
