Should I take a course in multi-family modelling before investing

[Collin Borns]

Hello everyone,

I am curious if people recommend taking a course such as REFM or a BIWS course before investing in multi-family real estate.  Alot of the gurus seem to say all you need to know is income and expenses, but coming from an institutional investment consulting background I feel as if that is way to basic for me to justify the valuations.  Has anyone taken any type of Multi-family valuation course they would recommend before diving into an investment?

Thanks!
