Total Revenue to date for airbnb ArbritageSo this is the part that a lot of people care about INCLUDING myself, so I've been really successful I can say that I have done a great job with researching and expanding so far, in I have made in total revenue *drum roll please*  $204,301.84 with profit averaging around 20-35%.

Or is this Clayton drumming up interest to sell his house in NJ?

@Bryan Cavellier, You can 1031 with any US property including Guam, the USVI and ...drum roll- The Northern Marianas Islands (go figure but I actually had a realtor from there in a class of mine recently) into any other US or one of those territories.  1031 is a federal statute so it's applied the same in all locals with just a few variations state to state at the state level. 

Now people's minds have been so polluted with this marxist-socialist drum beat for decades that people now default to a socialist answer of "Make Them ____, that's the answer, MAKE EM DO IT MY WAY" and that will fail every time because the very framework is designed to operate opposite. 

auctions will be a difficult way to acquire properties as a brand new investor.Yes, I've got ~10 property managers and ~10 agents (looking at on-market deals as well) I'm speaking / spoken with drummed up through Google / Biggerpockets in each location.

Take it with a big grain of salt - I saw a property tagged with HIGH RISK of HEAT due to a 200% increase of days over 100F in the next 10 years....going from ONE per year to ...drum roll...TWO days per year.

Personally I think it shows bad form from them by what they do, and I personally doubt it is helping their business at all by being a shameless drum beater instead of an honest purveyor of the area. 

Quote from @Beth Rook: If it were easy, everyone would do it.You need to keep learning and trying to succeed at real estate investing (or soccer, acting, drums, etc.).This forum is full of people who help others without ulterior motives or financial incentives.

Those old drum traps in particular are pretty awesome to get cut out and replaced with pvc. 

And of course, drum up some off-market deals.Thank you for taking the time read my LONG post; as you can tell I am passionate about parking and veteran employment.
