In my experience, most of the online calculators are just taking an educated guess for you.

Education standards must be raised so that students actually use their heads for something besides hat racks (allowing them to actually earn a living) and have ready access to birth control (all types of) so that some mistake doesn’t derail one’s entire life.Slow down immigration, too.

My goal is to build a business that serves corporate clients; construction and infrastructure development teams,  medical/education faculty,  corporate relocation,  family emergency relocation services,  sports travel/events, corporate and industryand I want to learn from those of you who are doing this successfully and are willing to share actionable ideas for how I can be successful in offering value to these groups.Thank you!!

It's those types of deals where I would argue that higher-cost education might be justified, as it would be cheaper to spend money on the education than to screw up even a single deal.

Get educated and make an educated guess on where to spend money.

You need to educate the seller that with the rates so high right now, a reasonable investor can't pay 2022 prices.

I think you need a little more education and a mindset shift.Real estate investing is a fairly simple process.

If you plan on buying these properties using a mortgage its also best to begin the pre approval process and work with an investor friendly lender to help guide and educate you what the best product might be for your projects to make sure you dont already max out your borrowing power after the first deal.

All the theory and strategy on here can help prepare you but the best education is doing. 

Focus on education, analysis, and actionable steps to build your portfolio in Grand Rapids.Good luck!
