Thank you Caitlyn for your explanation.I'm so glad that someone has knowledge in this aspect.

I agree there's a lot of "guru nonsense" out there--I'm sick to death of it--but how does the average person acquire the specialized knowledge they need to succeed?

Thanks again for time and for sharing your knowledge/experiences.

Too bad I did not know about this website prior or I probably never would have made the purchase (did not have knowledge of the 50% rule for rental property).

Please stick around and share some of your knowledge with the rest of us.

After a few months of working with ungrateful consumers on a pro bono basis, I had to start charging for my knowledge; otherwise, I couldn't motivate myself to keep doing it.

Im excited about what this forum has to offer and hope to absorb knowledge in the REO and real estate inductry nationally.
