Your owner occupied on a 0% down loan for a four-plex brought me here.

I took the cash generated and partnered ( brought the money) with other investors to enable them to make another deal and me to learn and benefit as well.

WOW, well then a month later Flipping Boston comes to town, now I tried calling these guys bc I want to be introduced bc Im the president of my REIA and I was hoping to get brought up to the front you know bc they ALWAYS DUMP THE NEWBIE BY TELLING THEM TO GO FIND YOUR LOCAL REIA, anyway guess how suprised I was to see the SAME salesman and crew again (btw no Dean or Boston guys) so It is really just a 3rd party company who is killing this biz bc they're scooping people up for $2k each and spinning they're heads around to pitch them for 3 days on a $40k coaching bs program.

Nick B - I sat up last night contemplating that scenario after you brought it up.

What I brought to the table was my ability to find and negotiate deals that netted around $75,000 after renovation and realtor expenses.

If you are marketing your deals publicly and many agents and brokers see what you're doing and you harm then in any way, you can expect a complaint to be filed and attention brought to you situation.Get a license, it's annoying but 3 weeks of time and a couple grand will save you tons of headaches and unnecessary stress.  

I spent $35 on a few trips to the county dump to drop off trash, $10 on lunch yesterday (brought my lunch today), $15 bucks for garbage bags, bleach and a six pack of beer (gotta stay focused).

In our present political environment, it's an unlikely prospect - our federal government brought in legislation a few years ago allowing companies to bring in "temporary foreign workers" and pay them less than the standard wage for the industry in which they are working.The $15/hr proposal sounds like a similar idea to a living wage.

You bring on help because you either need to (you're too big for what you have) or because you want to scale... sounds like you brought on the help but forgot to scale.You've freed up some of the tedious work so now you can spend more time on the phones or visiting houses... but doesn't sound like you're generating enough leads for that to consume your time... sounds like you need to ramp up your lead generation to get more calls!
