what i am trying to emphasize is due to how biggerpocket is structured, it creates so many newbie because the technology that's used by biggerpocket is so 1992. it's just simple forum, people ask question and then people would answer.in 2024 , the journey should be more like finding a better answer interactively, summarization and contextualization. so if someone ask "hey shall i invest for cash flow or appreciations ?"

Steve Babiak summed it up very nicely I think.I would just like to emphasize that I feel it is important to let every applicant know what is going on and refund application deposits whenever possible.

The most important thing to emphasize is the longer you own real estate the better it does.
