I'm an investor in NJ but prices are ridiculous.

If you can do the calculations, and you are earning close to Graham these write offs are pretty ridiculous. 

Please, don’t throw it down the drain on these ridiculous mentorship programs

And that was my point--sometimes ridiculous offers work with foreclosures because the bank does not really know the true value of the asset.

Account ClosedAbsolutely not because there are many things you can prep over the course of 2-3 months to make your direct mail super successful and in the meantime since you are pulling down good money, if you budget and practice frugality you can easily fund a huge direct mail campaign without paying ridiculous interest rates on your credit card. 

That's kind of ridiculous advice, haha. 

Pocono; I don't know how it is now as far as overbuilding, but I lived there for 6 years as a kid and even then there were a ridiculous number of properties available, all the time.

@Brice Hall I think the part you dont understand is you $250/mo # for capex is just ridiculous especially if you run that across a portfolio of many properties, and regardless of the price of the property the capex applies, does not mater id its a $30K house or a New house, the roof (if shingled I use steel one and done) will need replacing every 15 years, appliances, furnaces, water heaters ect, but most of it is cheap, I pay $300+labor say $600 total for electric water heaters, most furnaces are $750+ labor say $1750 total I can usually buy a stove and fridge for $1000, and that roof every 15 years is about $3000-$6000,  yea there will be other stuff, but if you amm it over 15 years your looking at maybe $100/mo what is the basis of the $250 figure?   

The entry point for my properties in my area especially B class neighborhoods are ridiculous 500K+.

Companies like Apple and amazon are filthy rich because they have a ridiculous amount of costumers wanting their product.
