A grown guy or gal can ride a motorcycle without a helmet, I ride and I always where a helmet but I don't think my State should tell me I have to.  

It's been a year since then and now all my $30K + debt is paid offA month ago I found and joined Biggerpockets, and decided to keep educating myself so I made up my mind to start listening every podcast one by one in order until I catch the current podcast, while also looking for potential investment properties, I also decided to read some of the books that they recommended in the podcasts.After listening to various podcast saying that is a good idea to get your real estate license, a week ago I made up my mind to take my real estate exam to get my license in Oklahoma.Now I'm on podcast 59 more than a year worth of podcasts in BP and I also passed my state exam :-)I feel one step closer to my goals and I feel a lot of excitement, I always feel so inspired after listening all these successful stories in the podcast, my passion for real estate had grown so much in the past month and it keeps growing. 

Now maybe some subdivisions have covenants against door to door people so that would be one scenario where you couldn't.Or hubzu might yank your access to bid on properties if they get enough complaints.

I've negotiated over a thousand short sales over the years, and over the last 3 years we've grown our holdings to assets in 4 other countries, & now focusing on our lending arm.  

Than start holding some doors.I started with only $35K and two years later had grown to right at $7K mo clear cash flow.

We have grown to 27 units and will be at 40 by the first of the year.. all rents are still being collected manually or mailed in.. we need to shift to a draft system.

Real estate holdings/investments have grown enough and are complex enough that I'm not feeling comfortable with my existing tax team, want to find someone in the DC or Northern Virginia area who has a bit more experience/expertise.

Had I simply put that money in the stock market in 7 years, I wouldn't just be breaking even, instead the money have grown significantly at an average CAGR of roughly 10%. 

They officially broke grown on it this past December.

. - has grown significantly over the years (thanks interwebz!)
