I think Collin is being a little tongue in cheek with the Boone's Farm comment.I work with a local, large wine store, wait for their semi-annual sales when they compound discounts and buy 2 cases of each (white & red) for the largest discount.Basically I'm setting out wine that retails for $11-12-13 that I have paid $7-8 a bottle.  

In an industry where trust and reputation are paramount, RAD’s predatory and misleading policies are shocking.Additionally, I will be explaining to the FTC that RAD’s practices meet the definition of “Deceptive Practices” as per the Commission’s Policy Statement on Deception, which prohibits material representations or omissions likely to mislead consumers.On multiple occasions, I was told there would be no issues in accessing my funds.

Both virtually and in-person.This will help you learn the industry and the market.

I grew up in the real estate industry watching my father raise money with a PPM for large multifamily value add projects and a developments.

I listened to all the previous hearings and the general sentiment was acknowledging that STRs are critical to the area's massive tourism industry and just banning them is not wise for the local economy.

Next, and again my current experience is in a different industry but one that's a highly dependent on Google reviews and ratings, I've found that there's always a break-even point where "paying someone off" doesn't provide enough of a return on the payoff. 

We are currently preparing my real estate strategy, of course using the Bigger Pockets Strategy book, as a previous business owner in another industry, there’s a lot of good and refreshing information here in this Strategy book. 

My personal experience after 40 + years in the real estate industry is that “wholesaling” is a very INEFFICIENT AND INEFFECTIVE way to gain knowledge and experience relative to real estate.

How cool.Well, It's because I was seen as a player, a closer (meaning I close on deals I put under contract).I said, "I didn't know you owned a building" and to that he said "yes, it's the building with two - first floor retail spaces and 9 apartments on the corner".Dang, just what I love.

Networking is huge, so connect with others in the industry, and look for mentorship programs (there are some great ones out there).
