Building your business

Hello, 

I am a relatively new investor, I am looking to develop a buy and hold portfolio. I was wondering if anyone out there had some suggestions for books, or other resources that may have helped them when they were beginning to build their real estate business. 

Thanks,

Hey @Tyler Mutch learn has much as possible about the 5 skills needed to be a Pro at Real Estate Investing. They are marketing; estimating repairs; contracting; appraisals; and negotiating.

Last, spend 80% of your time marketing.

Hope this helps. Good luck.
