Hi Riley, work toward building a team to handle property acquisitions..and that implies much more than VA status. 

There are a few reasons for this but the main driver is the fact that in Georgia the county tax commissioner has an implied lien over ALL real estate owned by a given taxpayer, not just the property or properties with overdue taxes. 

For the record, I was not implying that you did not go to college (it was my assumption you had) - I was only making the point that you paid to go to college to learn what they taught, notwithstanding that the knowledge itself was available elsewhere, and likely for less.  

You make statements as fact, which implies you've seen a lot of HUD-1s.

But you are implying this is always positive when in fact debt is just as likely to multiply negative returns as positive ones.

If you use the 50% rule as a rough cost estimate, it implies that the entire principle and interest is negative cash flow. 

You further implied using a hard money lender - why?

for me team implies those people who you use to carry out the functions of investing.  

And it sounds like his question is whether he should increase his list size or focus on those 200 targets.Mike Hicks - I think what Michael Quarles is implying is that you need to hit each target multiple times.  

However the "Pro" word may imply otherwise.
