Learning Resources for Beginners

[TeErinn Chenevert]

Hello Everyone!

My name is Te'Erinn Chenvert and I am currently an accounting student at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and I’ll be graduating the Spring of 2019. Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve grown an interest in real estate investing and I’ll love to gain knowledge on the subject. As a “newbie,” I was wondering if anyone could recommend where I can specifically start to learn more about real estate investing as a beginner.

Thanks!

@TeErinn Chenevert Welcome to BP! Accounting is a great profession! I'd recommend working on the CPA exams as soon as you are eligible. 

Here are some resources I've enjoyed:

Podcasts

Episode 108 - Grant Cardone... Just listen…

Episode 283 Paul Thompson - Quite a new episode but I would think everyone would agree this is a top episode. Mainly, the systems implemented are fascinating (VA, automated offers, etc.) Plus...escape velocity...

Episode 113 – Jay Papasan - Very practical slow and steady advice

Episode 221 - Tim Shiner - his concept of equity build up and "shearing the sheep" shows some of the flexibility of real estate vs a 401k

Last but not least, I also recommend all the tax advice given by my fellow CPAs on the BP Podcast.
