They're expensive, but I know several people who have gone thru each program and become what I think are successful investors, moreso than other programs. 

What trends proved to be the most successful for you last year?

Technically yes, but your odds of success are very slim and your potential will be very limited.

Unless I’m overlooking something, I haven’t been able to find mentors who specialize in helping rookie investors navigate the small multifamily space for properties no larger than four units.If you have any recommendations for helpful programs, coaches, or resources you’ve had success with or heard good things about, I’d greatly appreciate it.Thank you so much in advance, and happy New Year to everyone! 

If you're looking to do value-added deals out of state, you're decreasing the chances of having a successful experience.

Curious what success people have had with this.

i had a lot of success with direct mail and actually a fair amount with email. 

I have a relative that has some flipping experience (2 successful flips) kind of mentoring me along.

If you’ve got any success stories, lessons learned, or even cautionary tales, I’d love to hear them.Thank you for welcoming me to this amazing community.

They do that many because they have a successful system that allows them to do that many.
