Contractor stealing money or just being inept.. happens to all of us myself include no matter how much you try to mitigate it.2. thinking HELOC's are 30 year fixed loans they are not.. and relying on them solely for your business liquidity they can get called or frozen at the unilateral decision of the lender.. this sunk MANY people in the GFC..

I have never understood why most people don't "get" the need to set themselves up for retirement without relying on a government.  

Relying on a Pro forma number alone is not prudent buying. 

These are the people who do not rely on email lists that spam your inbox but instead on a handful of their investors whose criteria they know intimately where one phone call can equal one sale.

Second, our off-market deal flow is increasing, allowing us to acquire more assets in a shorter period of time than if I were relying on marketed deals where you can only find one good one every couple of years. 

Again, that's probably not one you want to rely on.

Which is fine, my lack of budget or concrete requirements probably sent the message that I wasn't that serious of an investor.Therefore I decided to take a proactive strategy instead of relying on realtors to bring deals to me.
