Real estate investment like any other investment you need to buy low and sell high, and right now in Southwest Florida ( Cape Coral, Florida ) the time to buy is now, short sales, foreclosures and houses listed on the MLS are priced right for the investor. waterfront property, gulf access homes, sailboat access homes.

I like how Jason is, but I like BLUNT! I was a NCAA athlete in lacrosse, and I had an ex Marine coach in high school. If it was not for that hard nosed coach, I would not have done well at NCAA. And I got out of Boot Camp Parris Island SC alive too! In the REI business, you have to tell the seller how life is. Agents - Realtors want the sales LOW to make a living. We REIs give Sellers another way - Sub2, Land Contract, Wrap - AITD, Lease Option, or even Cooperative Assignment (You lease option as principal then assign the deal to a Tenant Buyer with a 3% fee, no license needed). I can't write as well as Jason, but I coach REI 1 on 1. Being a REI Coach is DRAINING, cuz you dont know the truth of what the student trully feels, even if you ask, and as a coach can not inspect the activity (calls, objection handling, closing, etc). But you do your best. Jason, keep up the great work, as I am a fan. All the best to you, Best Wishes, Brian Gibbons, REI Coach since 1986 What kind of RE Coach do you want?

I think the majority of us lead multi-faceted lives which include either another job, or family. Your list is extraordinarily aggressive and I have no doubt if somebody can find the time to do what you suggest in that list, they will be successful. I do wonder how many hours you have in your day though? =) I assume this list you created is for FULL TIME+ investors.
