Best book/course to learn how to rehab?

[Greg P.]

Does anyone have any recommendations on courses/books to learn how to rehab houses successfully? Thank you

I like the idea of getting an informational experience that will go way beyond what you would pick up in a book (although the idea of what I'm about to say actually came from a book written by Kiyosaki). What I'm talking about is mentoring. And the idea I'm referring to is to "work for free".

I think the time it would take to learn quality information would probably be cut by 75% if you found a seasoned rehabber who took you under their wing and taught you. Many people with knowledge find it rewarding to teach and pass on their passion to a passionate disciple.

Offering a business person free help for the benefit of knowledge is a great way to work your way into a mentorship. You could offer to take care of an investor's logistical headaches (which would do wonders for your learning experience in itself) like phone calls, appointments, emails, marketing, etc.

If you present yourself as a newbie who most likely won't be any serious competition, you probably won't get much resistance. If you do, move on to the next entrepreneur. Also try to find ways that you could increase someone's bottom line profits as you're working with them. Who knows, in time your relationship with your mentor might earn you a partnership on your first deal, which would be a priceless result that going it alone with books and seminars could rarely beat.
