before purchasing a new list I'll definitely make sure that everything's in place. the idea to scrub the list using MLS is great too.Driving for dollar is what we are concentrating on especially in a competitive market like Brooklyn...thanks again!

You are just tired of seeing $10k to $15k or more of equity go past you without grabbing it because you are concentrating on something much bigger.

I have another business outside of real estate from which I learned early to automate as much as I possibly can so I can concentrate on the really important stuff. 

For these people to concentrate their savings into one or only a few RE investments without extensive knowledge, will, ability, or desire to be hands on at any point in their REI career is foolish IMO.

Reasonable thinking would indicate that concentrating on pay it off and not accumulating more is preferred rather then thinking that investing is a path to getting out of debt.

Generational wealth" is better defined as a concentration of wealth administered in such a way that it will last a family for generations.

You need to outsource your mailings and concentrate on building a business, not being a "worker bee".

Now this is my opinion and what I will say when it comes to getting involved with a mentor or "guru" program:People who could benefit from a "guru" programPeople who do not need to go into debt in order to pay for the programPeople who already have some experience but not too much experience that they already know all the ins and outs of most real estate investing strategiesPeople who know how to succeed and have a good success record in other areas of lifePeople whose learning style is more of a seminar format rather than a self-learning coursePeople who do not already have a network of investors they know and who value networking with investors who invest on higher levels (such as the trainers, etc.)People who would rather pay money to shorten their learning curve and dedicate concentrated effort to learn from someone who has been successful in the fieldPeople who probably shouldn't do a "guru"programPeople who have to go into debt to pay for the coursePeople who think that by paying for the course that the "guru" or mentor will do most of the work and that it will be easy once they go to a coursePeople who don't have money over and above the cost of the course in order to start using the strategies right away.
