    REAL ESTATE 
    Hey, guys! I just published an article on my blog titled - What Is a Good Cap Rate. There is an awful lot of misconceptions about the concept of Capitalization Rate, what it is, and how to properly use it. If you are interested in real estate, which you should be, CLICK HERE and learn. Feel...

    FB Marketing is a pain in my a$$

    MARKETING 
    The problem with selling directly in the real estate space is that it is generally quite adverse to "guru", and rightfully so. BiggerPockets leads the way with regard to this. While guru is a function of over-charging, up-sell, and all the rest of it, still the mainstream thinking is somewhat...

    This is always tricky, more so in the fact that asset protection strategies are not necessarily always good for income-tax alleviation. I am not a CPA, but S Corp is nice and should work well if used correctly. Instead of IRA you should be using a SOLO 401. You may consider incorporating C Corp...

    I have a large body of work on the internet. Lots of podcast appearances. Tons of written content in my space. Very large presence on BiggerPockets. Basically, when real estate is discussed, and I am talking, people tend to pay attention...at least enough to come check out my site. My front end...

    Thanks for jumping in, guys! I have a team. I have a webmaster who handles everything related to the mechanics. He is very good, and he and I work well together. He is a member here, but we were working together before either one of us knew of FL. I also hired a consultant about 6 months ago...

    I am a real estate guy, but I do have a course called Cash Flow Freedom University. My ever-green funnel converts in the 7% - 8.5% monthly range. Thus far all of my traffic has been organic referrals - from posts like this one. But, lately, I decided to look into buying traffic, and I thought...

    I coined these - Actionable Questions. An actionable question is one that reacquires action (or inaction) as a response. The action/inaction can prepare the sell by letting you into the attitude and perceptions of the audience. As per Aristotle @Justin Gesso - nice to see you here...small world!

    I, for one, appreciate your post a lot. I was fortunate to immigrate with my family when I was a child. I count my lucky stars! And I look around, survey the nonsense that is the political landscape in America today, and don't even know what to freaking think...?!

    J - When I say that "some yield is better than no yield" I am being sarcastic. Nobody has unlimited availability of free capital, but they are acting as though they do... If you actually underwrite to NPV, and if you discount the current delta to the opportunity cost (you and I are both doing...

    Very interesting thread. I see many of the same dynamics in real estate. I am not smart enough to know when it comes and what that will look like, but the valuation methodology out there, and the risk pricing folks are pursuing is to me more than aggressive, presuming upside of future revenue...
