I don’t get why people would pay for an education when you could get it for free on bigger pockets. 

If the purchase price is $400K, you can write the offer so that the net amount to the seller is $398K.Lastly, if you believe there is opportunity in your local market, educate the BP community!

I believe these posts are influenced by the pay for education syndication model.

Perhaps not a trend to consider across the city but any neighborhood that would attract college educated young professional families seems to be a good bet if you wanted to focus on this asset type.I plan to build 12 townhomes as a second phase of a condo/townhome project in a good area of Mount Airy near the Chestnut Hill boarder and even though I’m likely to years away from being ready to begin phase 2, my current plans are to keep the 12 homes as rentals for the precise reasons I outlined above.  

Come to think of it, about education.

After years of educating myself on real estate, I'm eager to finally jump in and do a small deal out of state.

I'm ready to start expanding my MTR portfolio and am currently in the "educate myself" phase.
