@Charles PerkinsI am a fan of the slow and steady systematic step by step path to investing success.Many of the gurus say Go Big or Go Home.I say if you are a beginner skier - do you go to the top of the mountain and jump off a cliff going down a black double diamond slope?

(Thumbtack, Yelp, diamond directory?)

Before lunch, they dropped $40k ‘Diamond mentorship program’.

You are talking to the Rolex wearin', diamond ring wearin', kiss stealin', wealin' dealin', limosine ridin', jet flyin' son of a gun, and I'm having a hard time holding these alligators down.

Ok, here it is, I will broadcast my tripple-diamond "secret sauce" recipe: (A) exposure, Exposure, EXPOSURE.

We knew that if we could get it for the right price, we would have a diamond in the rough.

Honestly @Don Konipol, "What it Takes" in my opinion is GRIT like diamonds!

Your total rents will be $3,400 No its terrible, MAX the all-in price should be is 125kish, DIAMOND condition.

And that nightmare of an impossible deal that a clueless builder put together became my entire foundation for everything to come because after turning that lump of poo into the diamond, that bought me a $ HM Lender who gave me dedicated funding for anything and everything I requested with a simple phone call, underwriting to follow when convenient. 

I love looking at thousands of properties to find the true diamond that catches my eye.
