As an advocate for responsible financial practices, I believe that the government should not bail out banks that collapse due to their own risky investments.

If there's a bump in the road, you have an advocate to reach out to that will help you course-correct. 

If you don't, then you will end up with poor to no results and a pocket with no money in it.It is easy to blow through $1,000 in Adwords, in a month and receive a couple of "tire kicker" leads.Your Adwords need to be focused, talk the language of the target audience, tracked and tested.

The bank isn't going to let you blow their money.

This is why I don't advocate investing in single-family homes.

He never spoke a word to us till 30 days later when he should of been returning my deposit then he wants to blow up my phone.

- "Game is over in the Residential RE investing in this area" = I'd like to play devil's advocate and ask - if it's over here (in your opinion), wouldn't most other states be on par as well? 

I dont have the money for lawyers and earnest deposits(what are these anyway) and there are WAY too many people trying this and I think I am doubting my ability to blow these people off and make some money. 

But if you can't verify all the information he's giving you, how do you know if he's not blowing smoke? 

Going against the grain, I like funding properties with 100% debt, but I don't keep my portfolio at a high LTV as equity and cash are like get out of jail cards.  0% equity properties have little to no room for error and can blow up your investments quicker than anything else with shifts in the market or the numbers just not going as planned.Best of luck!
