So I need to get a template I can use consistently.

For instance, a duplex can offer more consistent income since if one tenant vacates, you still have another paying rent.

And don’t overthink—your first deal doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to get you in the game.You’ve already taken a big step by asking for guidance, so keep that curiosity alive and stay consistent —let’s crush it!

Prices in CA have risen significantly and consistently for 100 years now similarly to NYC, Miami or Other hotspots where people want to be.

Or it could be that the recipient inadvertently dropped the email (it happens).But if two-way communication has been established and you’ve found that the sponsor is consistently slow to respond, that would be cause for concern.  

However the negative reviews have been consistent for a few years, and still recently, so that is a concern.

Doesn't have to be a lot of hours but gives you consistent income as you flip(would be 60/90+ days till you see a return). 

Taking financial advice from people who have made a life of consistent bad financial decisions is never a good idea.

Learn how to consistently hit singles and doubles, and don't be ashamed to take the occasional walk. 5 years is a very short time frame to go from no RE to financially free (although you may already have property, which is an awesome start). 

When you are consistently above 820, you may occasionally hit 850.
