I think too many people get into this and struggle for too long before realizing that they not been properly trained and potentially could have dramatically shortened the learning curve.   

Make sure to include proper disclaimers. 

Unless you have some sort of subject matter expertise or access to an unfair advantage (cheap labor, ways to source off market deals, etc.), index funds are likely to provide an equal or better return with a MUCH lower hassle factor and more liquidity.

Most of the deals I do are off-market and they are sourced from cold calling.

While I am always looking for off-market, as an agent with access to MLS, that's my primary source of looking for deals right now. 

Thank you Brett, mainly for properly reading my inquiry and genuinely trying to help me.

Financial Freedom Network I laughed at -- after reading the agreement, no comparable value for that monthly price -- 3 or so years ago, if value has changed now, my time-based disclaimer is as aforementioned -- and Legrand would do well to disconnect FFN from his name, as I believe FFN is now out-sourced, whatever.I empathize with you , Joe and the other responders, but when I read Legrand’s, and most of the other guru’s, contracts prior to trying a teaser product, it clearly stated in the agreement that if customer did not want the upgrade service for which the teaser/free product, free video, whatever, was being given away, then customer must cancel within the stated period of time, which almost always range from 30 to 90 days [60 days is becoming more common, as more folks forget to cancel]So long as terms to cancel are clearly stated prior to contracting, I don’t find it unethical, -- and real estate gurus have merely adapted a teaser or rebate marketing technique used in most every industry -- recently even Chrysler cars [try our minivan for 60 days!

If you want off market deals, typically the best deals are the ones you are going to source on your own, not from an agent or wholesaler. 

You might also want to look into supplemental insurance for future stays, like Proper Insurance or Safely, to cover situations where Airbnb’s support falls short.I'd be happy to help more.

If your exchange is not done properly or your funds are not safe you are going to kick yourself for trying to save $500.
