The decision to cut back on the learning was one of the best choices I've made so far..

Hi BP, 

I'm all for due diligence and learning your passion but I've come to the conclusion that you can become so engulfed in "learning how to invest" that you never get around to the "Investing" part of it.  On 11/5 I stopped reading and listening to a lot of real estate info and began looking to make offers.  I signed my first contract 11/11 and following the same guideline I signed another contract yesterday.  I know it may not count for anything until i get to closing table but I can say I really found motivated sellers who want to sell asap so I don't think they'll back out.  

Maybe I'm wrong but If you've read a lot, listened to a lot, talked to a lot of people, and asked a lot of questions.  Just make the jump and put some deals together.  I"m sure you know more than you give yourself credit for.  I seem to have this momentum going and I want to make offers every day where a month ago I had no idea as to when I'd be "ready" to make offers.  

Just my two cents...I wish you all wealth.
