At the end of the day we all want money to afford the things we want to accomplish and have in life.Given that no matter who you are you only have so much time in the day.You can leverage people to do more in the same amount of time but the time remains the same.I want to flip this around.A great broker will not only be working with investors but doing deals of their own.If the investor has the know how they can get licensed and do it themselves.Some investors are professionals like lawyers,doctors,cpa's and want to invest but have no time.They need a broker to help them with their goals.There is plenty of business out there for everyone and there are many flavors of investors.If I only have so much time in the day I as a broker want to maximize my return.I can sell a 1 million dollar commercial property and use the same time as selling a 50k property but my returns will be way less.

My mom has been a teacher in the Lakewood school district for the past 17 years and is very familiar with the neighborhoods and the flavor of the community.

@Ryan Bird Financial Advisors come in many different flavors to include compensation structures and areas of expertise.  

Think Berkshire Hathaway BHHS or keller Williams or exp or Remax or Weichert or Coldwell banker plus whatever local flavor brokerages you have in town that are usually on a 50/50 - 70/30 split model.

I dislike Cozy because it is harder to navigate than Avail in my opinion.Use the search bar above and look for "property management software" and you'll find thousands of discussions and blogs.Asking people which software is the best is like asking which ice cream flavor is the best!

They’re bringing new flavor to the fractionalized concept which not only benefits the investor, but also to consumers in a huge way.

The Heloc like Andrew mentions by "matures," he means the HELOC will turn from interest only to principal and interest payments generally based on 2 portions 1) interest only as prior 2) a flatline principal payment schedule which means your balance divided by 240 months if you're on a 30 year HELOC with 10 year interest which is the most common.HELOC's also come in different flavors like 20, 25, or even 15 year HELOC's  where the loan can mature or term out before paying off your balance at the end of the term.

Thanks, Scott   Hey Scott, also former USMC here (my favorite crayon flavor is magenta). 

Gotta have the big bag of kettle-cooked salt-and-vinegar flavored Cape Cod potato chips every week.

On youtube, creators love to talk about that being the case so it's always flavored how I've thought of it.
