started wholesaling now I'm here

Hey guys, I started out doing wholesaling and my intentions have always been to gain more knowledge and more capital to purchase a multi-famil unit or SFR with low risk. I've done the marketing and am in the midst of my 1st wholesale deal and I see that I enjoy, but my heart is truly in being a landlord and getting that passive income. I know you need reserves when you get into landlording so I am still patiently waiting to have that emergency money but what are some other ways outside of studying BP and reading certain books ("Landlording on Auto-Pilot" is my current read) that I can gain more knowledge? I'm more than happy to continue to studying the market, reading about different situations I may encounter, but just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on anything else.
Thanks

Junior Salters Materials by Mr Landlord, AKA Jeffrey Taylor, are very good. I also just recommended a book in another thread called "landlording" By Leigh Robinson.

But don't just focus on real estate books. Real estate is a business and you should be reading books on sales, marketing, finance, accounting, negotiating etc. One just recently mentioned here was "How to win friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie. It is an outstanding book. - Ned
