Thanks for your response @Rob D.  

Also, they began to skip payments and eventually, they stopped paying altogether.

As I continue to grow my portfolio, I'll want to eventually diversify a bit into other strategies.

If you believe the hype and there are no deals and you need to go big, then your actions will mirror your beliefs.If you think you can close a 6 unit, then you eventually close it, and then move on to a larger deal.Be prepared for the opportunities that are about to hit the market!

My wife and I both looked at each other and knew, eventually, the cat would be out of the bag. 

Initially, I pursued wholesaling with the goal of generating income to eventually buy and hold properties.

Which brings me to the purpose of my post: What types of jobs/professions would be best to learn more about real estate investments - particularly for someone who wants to focus on residential and (eventually) commercial multi-family properties?

All this company has is a talented Sales Department who can BS and promise you things they will eventually break in the future.

However, if they continue to refuse and there's no resolution, you may eventually have to look into the legal steps for eviction.

You and I agree on this and why eventually wholesaling will become illegal eventually.
