Contrary to popular belief, real estate does not excite me in and of itself; just as a means to an end.  

None of us can find, evaluate, and work on every possible deal out there, and again I am of the belief that that these issues/fears can be mitigated.I also really like what Tyrus mentioned "....but it really it the burden of the mentee to prove to the mentor why they should help them...."

I'll stand on the same beliefs.

Imposing his belief system on others is not good practice and will keep you from serving other and making money!

Great to read your story and not just your mindset shift but your hustle, hard work, and belief in yourselves! 

Has anyone ever purchased a physical church building and leased it to a religious organization or done a creative remodel and used it as office space or for something else?

It is all taking advantage of the lower rates and your belief in where they will go.  

Sometimes the issue at hand is simply outside of our control.We like to think of it as a balancing act.Balancing the needs of a homeowner vs. renter is arguably the greatest challenge for a property manager because, traditionally, the two have diametrically opposed beliefs.

The opportunities in Columbia are amazing.We are pretty simple-minded: our belief is that the more you make on a house, the easier it'll be to sell you a lot more.

Persistence AND belief pays off.
