Let me add some new wisdom to this.Try not to see social media as "just another channel to try my luck".It is not a separate thing, especially doing SEO or paying for ads.When it comes to lead generation, it is not (just) about generating that lead.

One reason eastern KY really lags behind is that they don't have a lot of employment opportunities and lower populations.

With $4+ million in equity, you could conservatively leverage your replacement property(ies) and generate strong passive cash flow from high quality NNN assets.

You will then use the K-1 generated to prepare your tax return. 

that will not cash flow - you won't be generating "cash flow" from the property that will go beyond servicing the debt and allow you to pay down any principal. 

You are right about the risk that comes with the holding period but in my opinion sometimes you have to take the risk and make sure the profit that you generate is higher than the costs that you paid by holding the deal for a specific amount of time.

At Bigger Pockets, I am hoping to make connections, learn, and generate wealth for myself.

I own a 6BR short-term rental in Estes Park, Colorado, which generates a lot of laundry—especially because we use high-quality linens.

Not doing anything to get better education or employment opportunities.

Name one product that completely eliminates lead generation costs, and efforts, where the leads chase you instead of you chasing them?
