Discover, Plan, Act.There is a time to discover and learn.There is a time to plan and strategize.And then there is a time to act and do.In all great endeavors, there will be a time to move beyond the learning and strategizing stages and to step out and act on the knowledge that you have learned.

But if you're doing a mail campaign remember this; you're mailing JUNK MAIL to the recipients, unless it arrives on the day they discover they need the money!

You should seek a attorney that only studies real estate.

I have never discovered anything by doing so.

(after they have read and studied the proper amount.)

Unlike the stock market, where tens of thousands of analysts are analyzing most every stock out there, real estate is an inefficent market where a determined and savvy investor can search out and exploit market opportunities before the herd discovers them.I feel like there should be an American flag waving behind me right now with the Star Spangled Banner playing in the background, but to me real estate is what America and capitalism are all about: with some hard work, determination, guts and grit _anyone_ can succeed in this great land of opportunity.

Also, if the investors study the area, then they can know the right areas, the right building inspectors, the right rehab contractors, the right property managers or the right teams that already have that in place.

I'll push on and start studying for that license then :groovy:

Study hard - read books on the area of investing you are interested in and read every word on this website until you thoroughly understand the business.

Nice study and thanks for sharing your results.
