For the people who criticize you for paying too much to contractors ask which contractors they used when then fixed up their tax sale property.

But, what critics of NAR fail to realize is that this has resulted in the most efficient system of transferring real property in the world.  

The inefficiencies in this market should be a huge opportunity for folks who take the time to find and vet operators and projects, and come to the table with clear theses, looking for operators and projects that match those theses, rather than reacting with FOMO to promises from the most famous influencers in the industry.I think it is mission-critical that BiggerPockets and this community shines a light on the industry and exposes the good and bad operators, and steers LP capital away from "lopsided bets" and towards humble, honest, hungry, capital raisers offering solid projects in areas they have clear competency in.

They have also outsourced their TAX SERVICES and despite my constant request to expedite my tax filing so that we can apply for a CRITICAL BUSINESS LOAN TO EXPAND OUR BUSINESS, THEY SAT ON OUR TAX and BOOKEEPING files for 7 months.

Some of the more 'critical' responses weren't about the numbers, they were about passive vs. active, and long-term rentals vs. the 1000s of other investment / business options.

Communication is critical and it is not always easy to explain or provide updates when one is underprepared, under-qualified or delivering negative news.

Capital is indeed a critical factor, and I also prefer to focus on markets closer to Chicago.

Financing and loan terms can be a critical component to supporting cash flow or incentive on multi unit or commercial properties..

They are some sort of bot that positively talks about a product, seminar, or guru after negative criticism has been given.
