I have been toying with an idea to have 4-6 1,200-2,000 sq foot shops, with a shared conference room and office area.

We've gotten a lot of people traveling for college visits and academic events (conferences, etc.).We have had really good experience with working with Airbnb so far. 

- Rudy GiulianiI got the quote above from Rudy Giuliani's book "Leadership"...and had I followed that mantra, I would not have made the mistakes I made this week.With regard to the probate deal we're working on, we assumed wrongly that the attorney in charge of the probate knows what he's doing.

We often have to schedule conference calls with overseas factories at the end of our workday and of course they scheduled one last minute the day of the last meetup.

After this years VRMA conference I was appalled by every vendor in the room saying how cheap they were and that they only charge x% of your rentals.

@Jay Hinrichs , @Brie Schmidt  (looking forward to hanging in Denver at the Best Ever Conference), @Kristopher Hanks , @Pancham Gupta , @Michael Le , @Carin Kveton  - thank you all for the kind words. 

The rep attends our annual conference and solicitations of their lending services to more than 800 Franchisee.

Local meetups In your area but try to search MF and syndication specific as for example many groups here in Atlanta focus on flips.Attending a conference if you can as well makes a great way to put a face to face connection in place.Please let me know if I can help you in any way.Cheers , Shane

Probably the most productive day was when I took a personal day from my 9-5 and LLC'd a business, got a PO Box, created a website, had a conference calls with Hard Money lender Pine Financial, set up a CRM system with leads in for local properties found on the county site, reached out to a referral for a solid contractor that I am having lunch with this Thursday, spoke to a realtor focused on investment properties and ordered business cards.

Now we need to have the national conference!
