She is doing really well but she also joined the Masterminds which can account for some of the success as well.

We decided to hire a coach that's an active and successful investor in our area to walk us through our first deal.

All I can see is the future success from the work I put in now.I'd like to know how it was for you seasoned investor who started in the business with nothing but faith and a burning desire?

I wish you more success on future deals!
