    You could say again the numbers have changed...lol I just evaluated a deal in at best a secondary market in mid-West yesterday. My strike was plus or minus $7 mil. Called the broker - the seller wants $10 mil +. And you know what - they'll more than likely get very close in today's market. So -...

    I don't think it's necessarily healthy to think of people as wanting for you to fail. We are better off to understand the psychology behind this... The law of relativity requires us to understand that everyone perceives everything relative to something else. You and your friends are on one...

    Interesting perspective! Many layers to this conversation. In RE - no. RE sport has but 2 speeds, and reverse is very painful. Acting without proper knowledge is deadly indeed! However, naturally action is necessary to move the needle. Perhaps if you phrased " energy trumps knowledge" I would...

    There are issues with what you're describing though, Steve... 1. In the big space you are forever competing with money whose agenda is very different from yours - this is very much a limiting factor. In the small space it is easier to find deals. 2. Also, to get to a pint where you can take...

    Real Estate is not the way to necessarily make money - it is to build wealth. In my case, I am more fortunate than most in that I have both to a certain extent. But, IM and other businesses are a much more efficient way to create CF...

    Haha - funny you should mention. Just did a T8 cash flow analysis across my portfolio yesterday. Freaking ridiculous - while there's nothing loosing money, the damn SFRs are at bare minimum...barely. Apartments are doing well, even in spite of some serious CapEx having been deployed. How's the...

    Haha - well, two things are clear: 1. Any forum which permits "bullshit" as a statement of expression - is my kind of forum. Feel cozy already...just need to figure out how to work this thing. 2. Looks like my reputation may have preceded me. All good things are true - the rest are lies!
