My question: how do you stay motivated to continue fighting the fight to keep investing, flippling, selling, etc. 

From my point of view, that would be going backwards - I am wondering how I will continue financing properties once I get to 10!!

Same thing with flipping; you just have to stick to your criteria and not get pressured into bending your criteria to force a deal to work.Everyone, it would be great if we all kept in touch and continued to share our experiences with one another.

I have looked at and analyzed several SMF deals in the west end (Waconia, Watertown, Delano, and the likes) and am continuing to do so, hoping to find something that my wife and I with our two kids could live in and still have a little room and somewhat of a yard for the kids to play in.

Grant Cardone and other big investors continue to say this , maybe I’m missing something ?

If so I would continue to run business as normal.

The reality of staying where I live is saving a large down payment (200k+) and continuing to work overtime every single month to make ends meet and provide a decent lifestyle for my family.

I keep striving to learn and continuously run deal analysis to help better prepare me for my second deal.

My first advice - continue to save.

He just started buying properties in Camden, nj and I think that’s where the potential partnership is, I have to continue what I’m doing as far as finding wholesale deals and potentially partnering with him on one vs something that already made it to the MLS at that point it’s no longer my market.
