You will learn a ton, meet people that you can do deals with (i.e. buyers), form your "power" team (attorney's, Realtors, Title company, private lenders, etc), and most importantly immerse yourself in the RE world, build your social capital, be inspired, and rewire your brain for success in real estate. 3.

I want them to be able to save up money so they can go on expensive vacations and buy nice cars and wear nice clothes -- they will inspire their neighbors to do better and eventually increase the value of my property and the comps in the neighborhood.

Nothing more inspiring than a humble post detailing the beautiful results of a couple’s collaborative efforts.

Now I gotta look it up :)Cody  just google Morris invest Fruad  or Clayton Morris invest fraud.. there are articles in the Indiana news paper and the New York times . for the short version.he is a marketer who used his fox and friends news anchor position to pull in newbie investors into buying rentals in the Hood of Indy and Jacksonville FLA... problem was a few issues.1. houses were beyond repair2. investor paid for rehab none was done.3. they put fake tenants in the houses paid rent  and like you many never went to see their homes and were thinking they had a stabilized home with a renter when in fact they had a vacant shell.4. induced people to put up 100% of the money to pay for new construction and no house was ever built just a weed filled lot.having been around TK since 2001 2002 funding many of them ( funded their acquisitions and rehabs as a HML ) I have seen this play before but it was usually nipped in the bud.. this guy had such a following that he literally sold 500 of these a year for a few years.

Pick your inspiration - the point is that in order to get action, you have to take action.
