Nothing will ever get that taste out of your mouth if you feel misled from the beginning. 

Too many emails for my taste, so I also unsubscribed.

I basically just told my realtor that we’re gonna start giving them a taste of their own medicine.

My story seems similar to many of you on the BP podcast and on the forums: work for the man, chase the carrot and get close enough to almost taste it, get burnt out (repeat X5), become enlightened (thanks Rich Dad!)

I think the issue with the double charge and lack of communication (had to find out tenant broke the lease myself) left a bad taste in my mouth and start to question a lot of the things I was seeing.

Remember that the bitter taste of having a bad deal (especially when you're living in it) will last a lot lot longer than any time or money wasted pursuing that deal. 

I think that is the biggest knot i have to loosen because I am using private money for my first few investments, hopefully just the first one so I can enjoy the taste of tax benefits. 

I don't agree with your politics and I think the eviction merch is in bad taste.

This experience left a bad taste in my mouth and I gave up the idea of residential investing for 33 years.

I must, however, satisfy some stipulations:  1) my offer must exceed the previous by 5%  2) I must put 5% down with the county clerk at the time I make my offer 3) I have 10 days to close 4) If i fail to close I forfeit the 5% down payment and also am required to make up any shortfall between the eventual sales price and the original offer 5)  My offer can in turn be upset by another bidder or the original bidder.Long story short there are too many questionmarks for my taste at this point.
