With that being said, I have a couple various questions that I hope will stir up a little bit of conversation as well as help me start hammering some things down. 

At an interest rate.To top it off not only do you get the privilege of borrowing your own money If you do pay out your pocket to use your own moneyIt now reduces your death benefit by the amount of your own savings you borrowed.None of it is a good situation for the consumer.It is called Consumer Confusion on purpose.Because if you can't understand it then you are left to rely on an agent who usually stirs you for what's best for there pocket.

While the late rents are annoying, they are paid, and we absolutely cannot afford to lose this Buyer.Our realtor has stirred things up as well.

Just to stir the pot a bit, I'll make the @Bob Bowling memorial comment: You never CALCULATE CAP rates, ever.

I have a list of 12 pre-foreclosures and came here because I had some questions on the subject, (sub2 transaction), but after reading some of the post about it...I think I need to stir clear. 8-0

I guess I stir a fuss when I mention market values. 105K is what the house would sell for all fixed up and market ready.

Too stirred up emotionally to take the right decision after losing my pillar of support. 

@Brandon Turner #askBP I think it would be interesting to have a fireside chat format with some of the better-known people on here that way you get various viewpoints on certain key issues (some recent ones that stirred up controversy is if appreciation should be factored in, using the 2% rule etc.).

My first and biggest complaint was the trainer, he was a terrible speaker.My girlfriend is a professional speaker/educator for a medical device company and I am a semi-professional magician/comedian, so I know a thing or two about public speaking.He was late both starting and finishing every day; he was also late for every single break and lunch.And although our trainer was passionate about the material, he was not supportive and had absolutely no apathy for his audience.The concepts they were teaching, often times go against deeply ingrained ideas some of us have held for 25+ years or more and would stir up deep emotions.Whenever a question was asked for more information, he would yell “you don’t need to know the details!”.

@Scott Wagoner, yep, I think the guru train came through and told everyone that wholesaling is the only way to get started in REI.Firstly, as much as I'd like the notoriety, attention and boost in my forum stats that @Brandon Sturgill received after his post, I'm not going to stir the pot quite so aggressively:)  BUT, with the number of them flooding this particular market, it's important to re-evaluate strategy in order to maintain deal flow.
