**Limited Flexibility in Marketing:** The program often promotes fix-and-flip strategies, which may not align with everyone’s investment goals.

In September of 2019 i accepted a promotion with the federal govt and moved to Washington, DC.

Unfortunately the people who promote them do a great job of selling the dream of high returns for zero effort.

Those that cannot be sold and land that have a lot of tax and fees attached and unpaid are promoted on the website, Government Auction, for auction. 

Furnished Finder is a good idea, even if the fit with travel nurses hasn’t been ideal—it might be worth exploring other platforms for mid-term renters or marketing directly to local families in need of temporary housing.One thought: consider offering seasonal promotions or themed packages to draw in more guests, like holiday stays or discounts for longer weekends.

Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Jay Hinrichs, while I wasn't going to call them MLM, I did attend an Armando Montelongo (A&E's Flip this House from mid 2000's) seminar at a hotel conference room in 2007 or 08, which was the free funnel to spend $1,500 for a three day seminar or $25,000 for an in-person mentorship.I have seen similar promoted with Christina and Tarrek from Flip or Flop more recently.I didn't start realizing how profitable education can be until the last 5 or so years.  

It might make more sense to just keep the rate, rent it out, save $30-35k, increase your income through a promotion or find another field and work for 2 years or more,  and buy another primary with a conventional loan. 

I've gotten more interested in learning wholesaling lately, thanks to Jamil's passionate promotion of the strategy on the On the Market podcast.

All said, you will find many folks within these forums that are strong promoters of self-directed IRAs.

Lee Arnold I don't know personally however my opinion on his system promoting private lending remains the same..
