Quick tip for the newbies (newer than me at least haha) 

Market yourself!!!

I read and read all day, listened to multiple podcasts, read the Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing but what made me take the leap was starting to market myself. I set up a headshot, started a website and made some business cards and have already seen an improvement of my networking. I went from ZERO to my name now being associated with an REI. I am in no way saying I'm an investor I haven't even made a legit deal in years, 1 under my belt by accident in 2012, but people know now, they now my business and are asking me questions and inquiring.

Like @Brandon Turner and @Joshua Dorkin say all the time, just make the leap and don't have paralysis anaylisis. 

Best wishes everyone!
