The time is now for me and I owe all this inspiration and motivation to everyone in the BP community that I am so stoked to be part of! 

A few folks had gone through with it, but either 1) they didn't have great credit to start with, so they spent a lot of time repairing their credit first, or 2) they found other hard money financing methods along the way and didn't finish out the year's worth of work to get the full amount.I was very inspired by some case studies about Morris Invest (thank you Tyler Jahnke et. all) to just go ahead and go through with this, and then write regular updates for you all so we can learn, together, once and for all, whether this method works!

Inspired, I'd like to make my first attempt and would love some advice. 

They are very inspiring and actually very helpful in their quick side explanations for newbies such as myself.Also, I would be happy to hear all of your book selections.

That's super inspiring man!

I've been listening to Bigger Pockets podcasts for the last three weeks and I've been inspired to start my Real estate investment career today. 

cool and inspiring story!

That is inspiring. 

@Dylan Mehsling 7 years ago, I used 100k to purchase one property all cash and rent it out - which was fine, but I didn’t know anything about real estate investing and didn’t understand I could have gotten so much more with the power of leverage.Fast forward to last year, I sold said property and used the same 100k as down-payment on a commercial blanket loan and acquired 14 units in a better market.I tripled my cash flow; from netting approximately 300-400 usd per month to 1000-1200 usd per month after all expenses were paid.Hope this provides some inspiration - if maximizing cash flow is your goal, so you can pay all living expenses etc from rental income, then smart leverage is your friend.
