Even though it's already decided to move forward with Smarter Contact, it'd be great to hear others' experiences using Smarter Contact and to see if disabling the opt-out msg has been... detrimental or better.

What has your experience been investing with Networthy.us?

Every market will vary due to labor costs. 

This vary heavily town to town. 20% down is great if buying strictly as investment but if you have a way of owner occupying I would explore that route and apply the 20% down to increasing value of property and instead using low money down loan. 

I bought it with my mentor and partner who has experience in renovation and hard money financing Congrats!

That is part of the problem with a lot of companies (I am not knocking insula as dont have all the info/facts just stating how the business works), they engage brokers to get them loans and the brokers collect a small fee. unfortunately many of the brokers may be similar to real estate wholesalers - have little to no experience. 

Has anyone had experience with Jerry's marketing program using Craigslist and VA's? 

At this time the primary goal is passive income and then scale within 5 years as I gain more experience and network. 

I think the best thing to do would be to find a good-hearted person with a lot of experience and pick their brain.

Just my personal experience.
