I thought it would be extremely formal guys with briefcases and way over my head. i felt it rapidly grew my network, knowledge basis, and confidence that has propelled me to be successful in acquiring 300+ units over the last 4 years. 

in some markets thats only 3 or 4 transactions.. to me of course I am highly biased because I started as an agent at 18 and got my brokers at 20 and only worked for myself the last 48 years.. having access to MLS and list my own deals more than pays for any over head.

Thanks for the heads up.

Just a heads up, a lot of the down payment assistance programs come with higher interest rates and other hooks.

Hey @Kristin Solbach, first get the loophole thing out of your head.

Take the 4 Hour Work Week approach and head off to somewhere in exotic😉

At the end of the day everyone just wants a safe place to be able to lay their heads each night.

I think as @Michael Plaks mentioned I think you need to clear your head and just focus on deals right now. 

Would you be ok with jumping on a call with me as I am trying to wrap my head around this?

I’ve also read through the responses and they too are accurate, well thought out and hit the nail on the head.
