. $18,750 start up and 80/20 split of profits with your mentor The website “promises” $100,000 in wholesaling profit after the first year and if not, the mentor will work with you to complete the promised sales for free after the first year.

As @Greg Scott mentioned, this is on the low end of deals like this and remember nothing is promised (check you docs on that).I own SFR homes that have far exceeded 10% returns due to their appreciation over the past 10 years or so.

Specifically, the Groveland and Oakhurst regions seem promising if I can find the right deal.I would love to hear from anyone with experience in short-term rentals in these areas.

People promise the world, but until you get in bed with them do you really know if they are all talk or not.

While the market appears promising, it does seem to come with higher prices, rising HOA fees, and increased competition.
