Spend time helping them appreciate your sincere commitment to applying what you learn and then prepare to swim in the vast ocean of wisdom these folks have to impart.

Hello, I just put an offer on my first property. It's a duplex in an up-and-coming neighborhood in LA. It currently has tenants in both units, but the seller's agent says that she's confident that both can be delivere...

But understanding the implications of taking on mountains of debt, and acknowledging that plain simple fact that this is exactly what mortgages are (mountains of debt), needs to be a part of the plan.This flies in the face of traditional/prevailing BP wisdom about always being hedged to the max, and that's OK.

It's my desire not to ask people for money to go do missions and preach the Gospel about Yeshua (Jesus) but to use wisdom in investing so that I can support my family and I and others who desire to do  the work for God's kingdom as well.I would like to start an orphanage and a house for widows one day as well.James 1:27 "Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world."

I don't have any experience dealing with the USDA and looking for some wisdom and guidance how to most efficiently and successfully navigate dealing with them.

I'm genuinely grateful for his wisdom and his Experience being passed down to me; I would also like to Thank the Biggerpocket podcast for informing me, how to see the real estate industry from different view also expanding my knowledge every time I listen to a new podcast.

Maybe just words of wisdom or encouragement? 

I am excited about this new journey and am ready to listen and act on all of the great wisdom and gracious members of this forum.
