Is either extremely naive or not capable of understanding basic micro/macro economic principals.

I understand that each deal may change as the players are defined and the amounts are determined for each player.

You can lend to me at any interest rate but as soon as I offer any percent of the profit it gets regulated.For decades everything has been set up to create large 'barriers to entry' which keeps small players out and keeps big players doing well. 

I don't know any company more process driven or capable on the online marketing front which is what drives occupancy rates.  

There are a handful of "key players" and most of the top performing brokers already have deep relationships with those investors.

So in communications for closing.....I always consider buyer, seller, lender, and title/escrow as the main players.

Also, would recommend plugging into local meetups in your focus area to start meeting the players and accelerate your practical education.

Keeping it simple is pretty much all I am capable of right now.

Reputation is important to players, and no one wants to be known for the person stealing a deal.

We all naturally always think too small for what we are actually capable of, and I feel like watching someone else that is in similar “shoes” as we are grow to unimaginable heights reveals a proof of concept that much bigger things are possible for ALL OF US if we put in the work to get there as well.I feel like this really synchronizes well within the real estate space, for example, watching a 26 year old buy their first 6 family commercial property and raise a ton of capital in the process to do so, to someone else flipping multiple properties at the same time, or doing their first flip and also en route to potentially buying a motel with other investors at the same time….We are all capable of so much more than our mind allows us to think….Put yourself around the right folks and you will all grow to places you can’t even imagine right now, and the more you reflect, you might realize that it was your mind that was the dominant factor holding you back the whole time… You could have all of the pieces you need to make leaps towards your vision, but are missing the belief that you as an individual are actually capable of doing it, and that is a big one… Damn.Happy Sunday guys!
