Welcome David.Make sure you read and educate yourself BEFORE you turn all of that money that is comming your way into a deal that may not prove to be investment worthy!

Two big focus areas this month:1) Marketing Automation - Website - Online ads - Direct mail2) Leveraging People - Virtual assistant - Part-time assistant (college student?)

So, I'm thinking now, MAYBE I should start to learn to do some of the bigger stuff myself.I can get all the required education, ect for HVAC for about 1/3rd the cost I spent this year on having someone else do it.

Also, sometimes questions don't get answered on here...I'm ok with spending money on education as long as I know they are legitimate and solid courses/tools.

Or you can go to my blog and start getting educated.

This is indeed a great place to get started and educate yourself.

It's getting pretty frustrating considering I've found cashflowing properties and even have the money to buy them but don't have the ability to even leverage my money a little.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Alex,Leverage is great when it is used properly.

I have yet to see or hear a single guru talk about the difficulties of the business or discuss the truth about operating expenses, cash flow; or other serious matters.Having said all that, you will certainly read many books and articles while acquiring your education and starting with one book as opposed to another isn't terribly important.

I like lease options because there are more people who seem to understand it and just need you to educate them through the process.
