Here’s what keeps successful house buyers winning (even when deals fall apart):**They don’t get emotionally attached to a deal- A lost deal is not a personal failure.

Now we are in 2025 and although I still own the trucking company, it has been an inconsistent pit that has technically brought me personally no profit.

I personally walked and researched every property prior to investing to understand what I was buying, what could be done to add value and what I should expect in cash flow and appreciation.Learning what makes a good investment for you is absolutely necessary. 

Send me a message and we can have a virtual coffee or an in-person coffee if you're around town.

.: My question is… Do people promote buying rentals due to some sort of  personal benefit/conflict of interest?

While you are at it, put the next person on MTM to create some equity in the contract when you have problem in the future.

Personally, if the property is in a bad area, this will give you headaches no matter what.

In my opinion, an in person meetup > an online connection.You may want to consider making a connection here and meeting up for coffee or attending a real estate networking event.Best of luck!

I personally would recommend it but it isnt the best run 3 day. 

Call it the organization's personality.
