I have been trying for years to reinvest $100,000 into some form of real estate and have gotten absolutely nowhere. Because I own my own business and deduct HEAVILY off it, I qualify for zero mortgages, even with perf...

I went to the 2 day Life Styles Unlimited class this past weekend with the goal of learning and finding a multi-family mentor to begin investing with. Like a typical sales funnel I quickly learned it was a brief over...

I'm looking at houses in Las Vegas that unless you pay cash, don't cash flow at all, and in most cases are a loss. So how are people making money with rentals in Vegas on 20-25% down financed properties? Appreciation ...
