[20:37] Investing with DeRosa
Some reminders for people who want to invest with the DeRosa Group include a.) Be patient. It takes time to build cash flow. b.)

[24:20] The Current Real Estate Market
The real estate market is slowly but surely coming back to a level of reasonability. But it does not change overnight. You must be patient and creative. Look at other asset classes besides housing. Find deals that make cash flow on the first day.

Your thoughts and words create your life. So try to think and speak optimistically. Things work out when you think and speak positively about things. Focus on what you want and fight for what you believe in.
