This years CE we had a pretty good instructor we talked shop most of the time. instead of deep dive into all the alphabet agencies and acts. 

Why is the City instructing us to spend an unspecified portion of the grant, which is designed to benefit the underserved, as a kickback to tenants? 

The Bootcamp instructors are all seasoned investors, and there will be many folks in your cohort that are trying to achieve the same goals as you. 

@Sam ZawatskyIf you do land on painting the kitchen cabinets yourself, here is a good instructional guide on DiY process https://www.younghouselove.com/mauve-kitchen-cabinets-hidden. 

And at least in our market there a limited rep agents that will put properties on MLS for a flat fee 500.00 to 1k. with instructions to call the owner for all showings and to write the contracts etc.

To clarify, as I have clarified a multitude of times, SubTo can be done legally, but the issue is the vast majority are NOT done that way and far too many don't accurately explain/instruct on SubTo. 

The Filipinos are only instructed to be able to get a name and number and set a call up later, they can't even get a hot lead to someone who can actually make a real offer... at least from my experience.The entire system is set up to be horribly inefficient, and has a such a low probability of working or getting a legitimate investor to sell a property, that you really have to wonder who was behind creating it.  

Instructors make it look like TV.

But I saw on the front page of the loan request app that they spefically state that landlords with rentals can get the loan and they even give us the direct instruction as to some selections we need to make (i.e. economic injury - just as David mentioned in his initial post). 

We can also write documents and work instructions and design systems better than any other group of people I've come across.
