thanks J, you have an excellent site devoted to educating everyone.

Jon-it is great the way you help the new people and have devoted so much time to helping others.Being able to point others to posts like yours and other experienced posters is a very good thing.Thanks

So haven't had too much time to devote to this as I would like.

I've been reading and researching day and night, I have alot of time to devote to this and am very determined to succeed.

Educational thread - much of the reason I distrust the stock market and have not done well in it is that I'm not willing to devote the schooling time to become competently educated at it.....just doesn't appeal to me.

The question is, do you pick out three people in the crowd and hope you have a connection that will yield a benefit or do you hit them all and connect later when you have time to devote to each person?

If you want to make $100/month in cash flow from the property (pretty typical in terms of minimum cash-flow that most investors want to see), then you have $250/month from your NOI to devote to debt service, and you could afford to spend about $37,500 all-in.

Basically, it says a broker's license is required (or engaging the services of a broker) if you engage in any of the following: 5 or more real estate sales in any 12 mo period Holding one's self out to the public as being principally engaged in the sale of real estate Devoting over 50% of one's working time or more than 15 hrs per week in any 6-month period to the sale of real estate.

You have people that have devoted their whole careers to supporting a system that is designed a certain way...and they vote!

-having a full time job that doesn't allow me to devote more time to finding and analyzing properties and continuing to learnWhat did you learn?
