I'm looking at purchasing my first single family investment property in the near future but I'm confused at the timing or sequence of events.

I tried to find a chronological write-up on 12DailyPro so people can look at the sequence of events at a Ponzi Scheme, but couldn’t find anything more useful than this (read bottom-up): http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyPersonalVentureIntoMakingMoneyOnTheNet .

My favorite feature about it is how organized my leads and followup sequences are.

I thought the course was comprehensive, well sequenced, and definitely worth the pre-launch $2K price I paid. 

I like REI for retirement because of the passive income without reducing the capital, which removes the risk of running out of money, and the steady heartbeat of income reduces the sequence of returns risk.

Only my accountant and God knows my net worth, and once a year God only gets a copy of the summary sheet.That number sequence represents what every decision you make in REI must be based on. 

Like @Tony SanFilippo stated, my copy and call to action in the letter spoke about how the owner wouldn't have to pay a broker commission.In most cases the savings for the seller in not having to pay the the broker commission is significant.My 3 step letter sequence went out every 10 days.

Any sequence of events can trigger all of these things to pop one after the other.  

All you are describing is your overall gain/loss in the sequence of returns.

it is usually in recording sequence.
