Buying nice clothes, buying video games, buying alcohol, all had to stop.

I have watched several videos and read articles about using a HELOC to pay down your mortgage.

I am a designer (graphic, web, and am experienced with video editing (I have edited and designed for many fortune 500 companies and have a portfolio for my work).

Unless you bring a lot to the equation and make your position pivotal you're just going to cloud the transaction. 

I always tell clients; never you make purchase based only on flier, video or social media images and information, insist on and go for physical inspection of the said property.

Same goes for pics and videos.

With a fully equipped shop, and a walk in type business, the landlord holds all the cards.After the barber shop, he had a video store for a another 10 or so years.

Hope you can show me the ropes and strategies of successful real estate investment through your wonderful podcasts and youtube videos/interviews/blogs/newsletters and grow as a community for financial freedom or even better to create generational cash flow income.
