Answering your phone calls while watching the games does not turn your living room into a home office.14-day free rent aka Augusta rule loophole.

In my case I was lucky that I still kept half of my portfolio, so didn’t get out of the RE game altogether.

Can’t watch a show or game without seeing Booking.com ads.

For example, I would place one in the game room if it is located on the opposite end of the hallway from the bathroom.

My strategy is the long game, buy and hold, build equity and cash flow down the road.

Use next 4-6 months to learn by listening, reading and watching how the real estate investment game works.

"It's a numbers game".Ohh and please ignore all the other people here on biggerpockets asking the exact same question dealing with your exact same issues complaining that they all are getting the same horrible results.

He doesn’t believe in the blame game.

Hopefully, 2025 will reward us all who have stayed in the game. 

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Francisco AvancenaThere are specific lenders who will do land dealsBut of course not as many as traditional real estate.The key will be skin in the game - typically for land because it is less liquid than a home the lender will want to have a lower ltv on the deal I fund land flippers currently in  CO FLA WA ID MT NV AZ OR TX SC GA VA  one thing about land though LTV is lower and RATES are NOT the same as typical HML rates are higher for raw land but its a specialty niche and a business that I grew up in..
