@Ben LeybovichThank you for the kind words and I wish everyone could negotiate multifamily financing as you can, it's such a hard skill to teachAs to the hardest kind of investing I really don't think it's that hard if you well-trained@Dev Horn I always appreciate your inspiration to newbies as far as marketing but also as to not being one trick pony and having three or four tools in your toolbox versus just having a wholesaling business; as you said perhaps 100 times be homeowner solutions provider@Micah Copeland I appreciate all your hard work helping BiggerPockets posters and I always wish you the best in Tennessee :)

I will definitely look to bp people for inspiration and advice.

We looked into it a few years ago, managed a few properties, but then had to make a choice between scaling it up from the few we were running and be serious about it, or, giving the few we managed to other property managers.The problem we could not get past was that making 10% on small sums of money to start with just isn't that inspiring.

It is merely educational, from my experiences, and meant to help educate an hopefully inspire people to gain financial freedom by investing in real estate.  

I'll read all of your stories as inspiration. 

I'm such a newbie but am inspired by others taking the plunge with good planning.

I too was pretty inspired by Rich Dad Poor Dad, and it continues to be one of the books that I always recommend to people.

I am a licensed general contractor and have been doing flips and rent preps for investors and property managers for the last year and when things slowed down this winter I went to the local REIA meeting to try to do some networking and got inspired.
