NOTHING ELSE.You know.. power to the gurus like Cody Sperber and Sean and... for doig an awesome job selling 400 dollar packages to get you started... great!

The company originating the loan has a lot more wiggle room and freedom when the loan size is much bigger.That being said, I just closed 2 loans last month that were non-owner occupant, 30 year fixed rate, no points, 800+ credit score, both duplexes, cash out refinance, 70% LTV and both loans were $100k - $120k at a 5.5% rate. 

School is definitely an option, and for some the best option, but we have a lot of power and ability to develop ourselves too without relying on formal education and the high costs it incurs. 

Some of the byproducts of this will be financial freedom for my family and I and being able to live a more happy and healthy life. 

On tax return you could deduct some expenses during the same year or during 3-5 years or even longer, it give you some freedom.  

I might be able to help give you some insight on this to help maximize your purchasing power and investment.

to add to the power of all this..in the time it took me to write that previous message I got 2 more leads in.

4) Saving as much cash as possible for down payment/ repairs5) Figure out the details of how the loan process works6) Determining my "Freedom Number" and seeing how many properties it would take to get me thereAny advice from the vetrans in the group would be appreciated. 

The contract will be gone within hours of sending it to their buyers list.Some may disagree but I am a fierce opponent to these REI meetings where everyone tries to see who has the biggest member... measuring up who is more successful, who has more rental properties.Just a bleh environment... if you ask me.I just don't see @Jay Hinrich in such a meeting, or Sean.. that guy from flip to freedom, or cody sperber doing such meets.

If pulling off something like this was easy everyone would be doing it, I'm set in my ways to take a different approach towards my ideal freedom.
