Intro information for Investors Transitioning into Commercial

[Michael Malloy]

I'm a single family investor now ready to transition into Multi-family and looking for some good informational resources to get started. I know that this question isn't very original one but when I search this topic on BP, I keep landing on posts that are 3+ years old. Hence, I'm curious if there are any updates to the list or if I should just stick to the favorites. Basically, here's what I'm considering after reading comments from other BP members. However, I'd rather not invest my time in anything that would just be redundant or too advanced for a first time commercial investor. I'd even be open to attending some seminar if someone thinks that it be worth my time.

-Ray Alcorn's: Deal Maker's Guide (This was authored in 2005, is it too dated or still have plenty of relevant content?)

-The ABC's of RE Investing

-David Lindahl's: Multi-Family Millions, Emerging RE Markets, Apartment Houses Rich Course
-Steve Burges: Complete Guide to Buying and Selling Apartments

Any endorsements or suggestions beyond this list would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I made that transition myself and used Dave Lindahl's coaching program.  His information is excellent and without that coaching I wouldn't have gotten from the 9 units I had when I started with him to the 80 I have now.  There aren't a lot of great books out there on apartments, but my favorite RE book is 'Millionaire Real Estate Investor' by Gary Keller.  Feel free to PM me if you have specific questions.
