So you could pay them $100/month or whatever steadily, but not $100 for every $10k raised or some such.

My little $100 per month cash flow means that I'm getting a raise of $1,600 per month thanks to those rentals.

You do not need to join some training program to get started in raising private money.

This type of mortgage rate freeze means that the Fed will have to raise rates after cutting them 3 times in 6 months.

Hey Justin, I was raised in Naples,FL and lived there for over 10 years.

Personally, I choose to spend my time focusing on the tasks that are earning me at least a couple hundred dollars per hour -- this includes finding more deals, raising money and creating processes to run my businesses more efficiently.Think about it -- while someone else is spending 40 hours painting their own house (and saving $20/hour), I'm probably spending those same 40 hours finding a great rehab/flip deal?
