I know it will help to have a mentor and connections to immensely fast track my goal but there was no way I could come up with $40k that time (after reading abit in BP, creative financing sure is interesting!)

Reputation and referrals matter.I invest out of state, and I’ve been burned by bad contractors before—it’s a fast way to lose money.

Crazy how fast it moved!

While this is regular due diligence, mistakes can be made when the market is hot and you have to move fast.

I understand fast solutions have slow problems.If I'm myself, I continue to lean into REI via BRRRs in growing areas of buying established but undervalue in very good areas to keep it a growing % of my portfolio.

I find if I do the "heavy lifting" like drawing out a system and or the floor plan of the cabin, you can find a guy to do the "official" work fast and for a cheaper price than if you sit back and do nothing.

I noticed these deals move so fast its hard to do these calcs quickly to make a decision.

I appreciate your fast reply and taking the time to go over the deal with me!

That’s not a hard fast rule of course.  2.

What I saw was the gambit of dreamers who probably should not have spent the money to go to this event.. and then folks that were very well off and just wanted a fast track and were willing to pay for it..
