@Kyle Johnson dude you are in a fantastic growth market with great fundamentals.

We're doing apartment deals there because overall it has strong fundamentals and a lot of in-migration.

It’s a fundamental simplization of a process so anyone can instantly understand vs having to be educated on what the 1% rule means.

They are both great at learning the fundamentals.

I am looking at the market fundamentals for the midwest and the only conclusion I can draw from all the data I have is that we are going to continue to see at leasta few more years of health appreciation, before we get closer to new construction prices and out of the supply dilemma we are in. 

With the stricter lending requirements that have been in place and the jobs that are being created (about 3000 per month), we still have healthy fundamentals. 

Rents almost never go down if you are in fundamentally solid markets.

The great difference between us is our age, so learning these fundamentals at your age, you’ll definitely have the leading edge over the majority of people, because most people frown about selling or think its to hard, Grant breaks it all down for you in cardone university. $100 bucks a month, cancel any time.

Also, nobodies claiming that you NEED a college degree to be successful; many have taken college courses at a very low cost thru Coursera  or EdX and and acquired the fundamental knowledge necessary to launch a successful business.  

I know you mention other metrics in other comments, but this comment alone can lead many inexperienced investors down the wrong path with bad investing fundamentals.
