Key Takeaways:

“You can pay the mentors and all that stuff, but I know how I learn, I learn hands-on and I need someone to show me how to do it. I can’t be, I can’t read it in a book. I do my fair share of reading, but I learn best if somebody shows me how to do it. I can read how to build a chair or you can show me how to build a chair if you show me how we build, check, and repeat that step over and over again.” – Jon Schoeller 

“I think a lot of people when they want mentorship or they want something, they just want something and they just ask, you have to give value as well. And I get it. Maybe you don’t have money, maybe you don’t know anything about real estate, but you have something to give even if that’s just your time. And that’s what a lot of people don’t have.” – Jon Schoeller 

“You need to buy with the plan in mind that if things go south in the beginning, middle, or end of this flip, can I rent it and hold it and cover my mortgage or whoever owned this money until the market recovers. If the answer to that is no, you are essentially gambling.” - Jon Schoeller

“The margin needs to increase with the amount of risk and that should always be the case.” – Jon Schoeller
