@Russell Brazil Not trying to compare status of real estate success than for any other reason than he has an entirely different opinion on solar conditions in DC/MD/VA.

The ones I am aware of (& I'm sure you'll find more if you Google)...Dave LindahlJoe Fairless Jake and GinoMichael BlankLance Edwards Rod KhleifSue NelsonBrad SumrockI just came from Brad Sumrock's event and there were a lot of successful students there telling their story about how they are currently doing deals, etc.His 1-on-1 program is a little pricey but appears to be well worth it because he has a whole network that a newbie can plug into.If you have the money... it's kind of a no-brainer.Shop around anyway though and I wouldn't try to skimp and go the free route.Buying an apartment building is not like buying a condo.

Hey BP, Has anyone ever had success with speaking with deutsche bank about REO properties ?

I love hearing other REI success stories and am excited to hear about yours!

Thanks to my reading, I have never been caught flat-footed by any situation, never at a loss for how any problem has been addressed (successfully or unsuccessfully) before.

My gf works for a Chinese company here in Shanghai that sells foreign properties to Chinese and have been doing it successfully for several years now.

Success leaves clues.

The sad thing is not many people even know about investing in notes, let alone actually invest and are successful investing in notes.

No judgement here, I know lot's of successful and lucky investors who are not risk adverse.

., (9) level of investment experience you have, (10) familiarity of the market, etc.As an investor, one of my primary responsibilities is risk management... my ability to fully understand all of the risks that I am taking and put processes/structures in place to minimize or control these risks.And if you are a successful risk manager, i have found that in REI you are able to mitigate the downside and generate returns that ARE NOT commensurate with the risks you are taking and do so by providing a triple win to your investors, your tenants, and yourself!
