Legendary real estate coach Bernice Ross joins us to share some of the secrets of the real estate investing trade. Bernice is proof that WHO you know is more important than having Google at your fingertips, because Bernice tells us HOW and WHY some gov't programs are worthwhile and others that come with stipulations that often frustrate investors. She also shares great ideas and shortcuts for new investors. Looking at buying your first property? Bernice has a great idea to shorten the learning curve. Looking at financing? Bernice knows where to start. Hiring your team? Bernice (of course) knows how to find and interview the right people to make your life far less miserable than the usual (and painful) search. You'll learn a ton and come away inspired after hearing us talk to Bernice!

Plus, in our headline segment, how does a developer in red-hot Austin, Texas lose money on a multi-million dollar deal? Our headline today is a primer on two of the fundamental aspects of investing in property: holding costs and government intervention. We talk about the do's and don'ts of buying property with lots of caveats on today's show. Plus, we take a call from a Deeder who's JUST about ready to begin investing. What are our biggest pros and cons when it comes to buying real estate? We review not only our favorites (and biggest complaints) but new ones we've learned from our esteemed guests over the first year of doing this podcast.
