The Schwabs and Fidelities of the world do not offer those services and their staff are not at all trained on the topic, so when they say "A Solo 401(k) cannot invest in real estate", what they really mean is "our Solo 401(k) can only invest in the stock market."

So say a person spend $25,000.00 on a mentorship REI package from pick-your-name-Guru-U.

For example, lets say a full rehab includes new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, and paint. 

All that being said to say, as a black college graduate only now (at 24) with being out of college for two years am I only learning about what life has to offer me.

That is to say a consortium of hosts beginning at local/city levels, to state levels and so on.

I, unfortunately, cannot give you much advice on investing in an expensive market as far as underwriting goes but I will say a few things.

One I have found is like for example say a house is worth 200,000 (ARV) and the buyer wants it down to 170,000 and say you convince the seller to get it down to 120,000 for the buyer and that means you get paid 50,000.

@Nicholas Brady with the internet and how everything is at your fingertips, is say a degree isn’t important at all.

By flexibility, I mean if in say a year from starting at as an Agent, I decided to focus one day a week on RE investing vs. acting as an Agent that day.
