@Jeff Cagle let me play devil's advocate.

I get what everyone is saying but I've also learned a lot from posts that some are probably categorizing in this way.

I don't want anyone to get scammed bit not everyone is scamming. Some are just doing common sense marketing that actually provides value to everyone and maybe 1% of the readers will actually end up investing with them.

These posts helped go from 1 home to soon to be a over $1M in cash flowing assets in a year.

Maybe I should write a book 😅

I mean even Bigger Pockets materials are marketed in the same manner.

I couldn't even finish the house hacking book as it was just.

The same stuff we've read rehashed over and over for like 200 pages.

@Scott Passman

The matrix is amazing.

I followed @Michael Ealy s advice a few months ago before I even met him. I just read his posts and managed to get him on the phone once. I started negotiating a 35 unit deal with no idea how I'd close it.

Around that time I went to a seminar in my hometown and had a partner in 48 hours.

The app is pretty terrible. Not trying to be offensive but it just is. I have to click 3 times per upvote, crashes, multiple apps instead of one, no night mode, not sure if I can bookmark things or see the market place. Also, you should be able to save properties in the market place.

@Tyler Hardy no worries but I'd also say to checkout the 21st century cash program for filling lots and especially (if you haven't) attend @Frank Rolfe 's bootcamp (Mobile Home University Bootcamp). Best money I've ever spent on education. Definitely better than the money I spent on 4 years of business school.

@Charlie MacPherson

That bear picture gave me the Willies. In a good way :) I'd love to get up North.

I remember playing with my Grandpa's ham radio when I was young. Always a good time.

@Nathan

My water is cold

I parent seventeen kids

Who bathe back to back

(A poem about my tenant who convinced us to buy a water heater because she didn't realize her and her 4 kids and all their girlfriends couldn't shower one after the other on cold winter mornings.)

@Tyler Hardy I'm usually not pessimistic but I'd avoid this one. You mentioned 20 homes that need removed. This will cost $2-4k per home. Filling the lots may take years if you have no experience or capital filling that many lots unless you have a unique way to bring in that many homes and sell them at once.

@Michael Ealy I was really hoping you'd do this. Signing up!

Ha, being originally from a town of 6,000 I can relate. I decided to acquire over a million in cash flowing real estate in a year or less a few months ago and people from home must think I'm nuts. Nothing is official but I'll hit that goal of the two deals I'm working on right now close 💪
