Sometimes we don't get the deal even if the numbers are perfect. I don't have anything to say, I just want to see how you all deal with the frustration when a deal doesn't work out how you planned. This is the first time I've experienced someone else who is going through the same things I have been through on my own. I didn't have anyone else to talk to to pitch the frustration to. Even if he decided on his own that I would be his mentor, we both agreed the numbers made sense, so why was his the lowest offer? 🤔 I'm just as aggravated as he is and he's a new investor getting into the commercial real estate space older than I am. How do you all deal with the deals that don't work out how you planned?

Seen any good contracts lately? Caught myself worrying ... then seen this ⬇️

I missed the last meeting and not sure if this was talked about. But this was brought up in a previous post about ethics and posting. I actually tried to researched this recently and was trying to figure out how to make post that don't break any laws or cross any lines. There was a difference on how it needs to be said and how someone else could interpret. It was some what confusing. This wasn't legal advive but just trying to do my own due diligence. If I was to approach it as a affiliate marketer and stay away from insinuating I have the money and just directing referrals to a company that does seems to be the direction to take. I am still new to this and learning how to navigate. How is something like this handled or best practices to limit any negative encounters?

So this morning I woke up to a message from someone on one of my FB posts asking if I use my own personal money to fund deals. I said I would DM him and connect, I responded and shared I work with funding partners and we collaborate and bring the right capital together for each transaction.... he then writes me back that I am basically committing fraud and will end up in litigation or in "silver handcuffs" I wanted to post his response below giving me what seems to be warnings, hoping as a group we can discuss ways to post confidently and ethically. I hope this starts a conversation and gives some direction for a call sometime... Here is the post I received from him: "Listen, I've seen your posts for a while and you seem like a very nice person and you aren't going to like what I am about to tell you but you need to hear it anyway because the alternative is a very painful surprise that ends up with you in civil litigation or silver bracelets. Based on what you are posting, you are doing what's legally called, "holding yourself out as"...in this case...a private investor with your own capital. However, when following up, you then indicate that your posts, memorialized in writing in a public domain, are not, in fact, accurate. I can only assume Pace didn't teach you this but this is what is legally known as, "Fraud in the Inducement". Obviously, that's something you want to not engage in. If they are your actual liquid funds in an account you own and have custodial control over, no issues. If not, and you are securing them via a 3rd party and brokering a transaction, which is what it sounds like, completely different story. You are opening yourself up to both civil litigation and criminal prosecution. Might be a good idea to clarify exactly what you are doing and your position in the transaction and relationship to any parties involved."

Each weekend I update my calendar for the next week or two and then I tweak each day in the morning after finishing my morning routine. However, i still struggle a lot with staying on task through the day. I will often take calls and have too much fun in the discussion and need to adjust to get back on track. How do you make sure you are getting the most important things done each day? The personal things and the things that are driving you toward your financial goals. What will you be doing this week to make sure your financial goals are being pushed forward with urgency and deliberate energy?
