    Are You Weak? This Exercise Will Show You

    HOT! MINDSET 
    wow, that felt good! I definitely couldn't breathe for the first minute or so. But using aspects of the Wim Hof method really helped, especially holding the breath. Day 1, success! How many days in a row are others on?

    Hey guys, it'd be great to meet up out there and see some familiar Summit faces. I'm in Mexico City through the end of the month, and fly into Miami on the 30th. Before that, I wont be around, but the weekend right afterwards (~Aug 2-5) I'll plan to make my way to Tampa/Clearwater. Always down...

    Update: what I've really been up to. Hi friends. Wow its been over two months since I last posted. Since then I've been doing a lot of personal growth. (Reading lots of books, watching youtube videos, journaling often, etc) After reading TMF (last August), it completely turned my world upside...

    Its been over a week, so here's an update: Up until about a week ago, my focus has been on finding the best location to invest in a buy-and-hold property. I had chosen buy-and-hold as my approach because I already have some money saved up and just wanted to put it to work. Cash flow sounded...

    Yea after that phone call, I'm going to research/think more about going in with a partnership for my first deal. Assuming I get all the same benefits of going at it alone, plus the wisdom & learning of partnering with someone more experienced. This person did specify LLCs are the way to go in...

    Thanks! :) I will do what I can to prevent myself from losing big. And commercial is interesting to me, and where I want to go. Though residential sounds easier to get into as a first investment regarding learning curve / capital / risk / etc. However, a recent phone call with an investor in...

    That's another thing I've heard, that a good PM company makes ALL the difference. As soon as I decide on a location, finding good/great PM will be on the top of my list. In fact, I've heard that it may make sense to find the good PM company first and then invest in their location.

    Maybe some of those are what came up on my search yesterday :rofl: Still more research & learning to be done :thumbsup: Also from what I've learned, though those may show those numbers on paper, they won't produce them in reality.

    So your purpose is on the action you take throughout your life? Not on the output of those actions?

    @WJK Thanks for your concern, but please don't jump in assuming I'm naively going to jump in with my cash. My personality type and DiSC profile won't allow that ;) Also, I mentioned 10% COC not a 10% NOI. But you're right, with a 10% NO the numbers wouldn't work. As far as being on the other...

    Haha, if only there were $100k 4-plexes pumping out $2k/month. Leveraged for sure. Though if I can spend less than $100k, great. Though I came across a couple properties that seemed close last night that peaked my curiosity. I need to research them more but yea they're likely in D/C undesirable...

    This got me thinking though that instead of blindly researching cities for which might be "the best" market...let me work my numbers backwards from $1000/month to find the purchase price and rent I'd expect to pay and receive. Then find markets where these prices / rents match.

    Hey @JScott, If just a 4-plex, looking for at least a 10% COC so around 100k. Whether thats possible right now, and where, I still don't know yet.

    Ok I'm still searching. A big part of me wanted to buy in Miami because I want to live there. Though Miami isn't the best spot for cash flow, so I had to not get emotional about investment decisions and started looking elsewhere. The two biggest US areas mentioned are the midwest and the south...

    Take a minute to think... What is your primary purpose in life? What is the primary purpose in life for others? I would say: to leave your mark. Leaving some sign that you were here on Earth. Some people choose to leave their mark on their world, by being great parents. Others choose to leave...
