My line of thinking is if a house costs close to $2,000,000, then then promotional materials ought at least reflect the value of the property.Take for example the flyer belowI took the same photos and information brightened them up a bit (they're still bad photos, can't do anything about that at this point), rearranged them, and produced the flyer below.Do you think I could get people to pay for my design services?

well I am going to offer some other type of adviceyour one of a million who want to make big money flipping houses.. hard to do very few do it well and its competitive as hellI would in your situation spend the 1k and get a real estate license and hire on with a top producer and get PAID to learn.. in a hot Denver market with high price points you can stumble to 50 to 100k a year... and you work weekends .that will give you a foundation and you will make far better contacts than at meet ups.. .meet ups that I have gone to at least in my perspective are a total waste of time.you have the experienced guys just looking to take advantage of guys like you.. hey bring me a deal and I will pay you a few grand... there is no future in that.. and if you have no money no experience you need to get both.. so that's one way to get into the industry and become a professional..

It was almost as good as the beard competition I went to at a rock hall here a couple months ago.I can't decide if I'm hung over from the beer or the sugar.
