Beginner introduction and advice

Justus Roloff
Posted

Hey there! Just started watching bigger pockets on YouTube about a week ago. Have always contemplated real estate before but now I am going to start taking action! Just finished reading rich dad poor dad per the suggestion of many podcast guests. I currently am in the Tampa fl area and may (hopefully) buy a property. Or that’s my goal to start. Definitely have a solid foundation from the content I’ve watched and will be digging into more legal aspects. Anyone from Tampa area have any market advice? Thanks, glad to be here!

Welcome and best wishes! Enjoy your journey.

Rich Dad Poor Dad is fantasy, although he pushed it as reality. Kiyosaki is nothing but a motivational speaker clown, don't take it seriously. Same goes with the four hour work week and the stoner from e-myth.

Read about taxes,  management,  tenant psychology,  body language,  negotiation, listening, construction estimation, and investing calculations. 

The blogs are great.  A lot of the podcasts are awesome. Josh and Brandon put their souls into them. 

Once again,  best of luck, 

Frank
