We know this is not a get rich quick scheme.

@Debbie LeeAlso, when this is over with I do hope you'll post the name of the company as a benefit to other new investors so they too don't get caught up in such a scheme.

You will only bring dishonor to your service to try to pull off that "2BR scheme" suggested above.

I guess I am simply finding myself struggling to free mental space to believe it's actually possible to become "financially independent" , and not just another pyramid scheme, book or, no offense intended "social networking site" etc. 

Not looking good for sure...Diane, I'm happy you got it rented and not saying that this could not be the start of something bigger, but in the grand scheme of things I'm not sure that dropping rent 3% because it took a whole 8 days to rent is really a signal of a real estate catastrophy.

@Aaron Mazzrillo   his pitch is to buy 30 to 40k turn key homes in Indy and you hit it right on the head .. about how many do you need for financial freedomthere was a long thread on this about how dangerous his model is.. and he is attracting of course the beginner investor who knows no better,  IE that is to buy a 30 to 40k all in rental in the mid west is buying squarely in the HOOD and the chance of financial freedom from someone buying these remote ,  IS well REMOTE at best , financial suicide at worst..2 or 3 of the top Turnkey providers made long posts about why this is not a smart investment ... and part of the issue is Morris invests marketing scheme of doing the take away close.IE people posting that to just get a phone call with Morris ( because they are so BUSY) you have to now wait until November..

Same paint schemes in each home. same with counter tops cabinets tile etc. 

I would like to seek out an interior decorator to help develop a theme and color scheme, then I can help find appropriate furniture and nick nacks.

So in the "get rich slow" scheme, our plan is always to look for that great deal, force equity, screen carefully and move onto the next project.

As someone in the business over 10 years, I was overwhelmed by the moving parts in a STR Abitrage scheme.
