Every time I change cleaners, I spend at least 3-5 hours retraining on my processes and expectations and even then things are missed.

@Wells H. you can spend DAYS driving through Detroit!

Company overhead - you will need to spend $5-$10k per year on taxes and company overhead. 5.

While it will likely give you more confidence and answer a lot of questions, I would say that talking to a seasoned investor, or even agent that works with investors, is a way better idea than spending 8K on something that you don't know too much about, especially before your first deal is done.

Life it too short to teach people that won't follow through...or to spend money learning stuff that you won't apply.

I have a goal of being able to spend time with my daughter and family.

They seem to have a great system and I know they spend years before deciding on where to build there projects.

My immediate goal is to acquire our first property and spend the next two years mastering the basics of real estate investment. ( Refining the Go and No property search criteria/ Learning the value of taxes and avoiding them as much as possible/ 1031 exchanges) Depending on my wife’s career orders, we may remain in Baltimore for 1-2 years, but I’m also exploring opportunities in West Texas, Sierra Vista, AZ, and Houston, TX.

So, why is McDonalds still spending billions on advertising?

@Heather Bailey Wow thank you so much for spending your time to help guide me!
