i feel like the local FB groups will not allow me to advertise my STR there because they would label it as "soliciting".. any way to get around this so that it doesn't look like i'm soliciting? 

I did what I felt was good amount of due diligence, but in hindsight I missed some deeper layers of analysis. 

Quote from @Eric Scharaga: Hi @Trevor S Foster,My company specializes in lending to investors on vacant land.  

Purchase price: $184,000 Cash invested: $92,000 This is an international investment in Split, Croatia NOT Santa Barbara, California.

Decided to pull the trigger finally in RE investing, taking advantage of interest rates and some on hand cash.

It can be trained to provide an initial analysis but I agree, nothing replaces expertise and sound underwriting. 

I am thinking about doing this full time and was wondering if there was a coach/professional i could speak with to give me an honest assessment on my current real estate portfolio?
