and by the way... Welcome Devante! 

 I agree with Sam in that you should start analyzing deals regularly. Also if you haven't already get your first deal done, if you can't do that right now then find someone who is doing deals and ask to learn from them. 

I would say the best education you could get would be through Youtube. There is so much content from industry experts. Best of all, it is completely free. A great place to start would be the BiggerPockets Youtube channel. It has quality content.

Have you listened to the podcast. There is over 500 episodes covering everything from "Soup to nuts". I have also read a lot of books, but the podcast interviews real people....Doing real-estate. and there are so many different examples of how people navigate this crazy awesome niche of investing. I personally started from the beginning and am 150 episodes in, plus current on the new ones. Every episode has a plethora of information, most of which you wont read in books, and many of the books you will read are mentioned on the podcast. Not only that, but sometimes they even have the authors themselves on to talk and that's pretty cool. Its very inspirational to hear about regular people, and their story of starting out like us, just like this, and making big moves in the industry. If you have not looked it up, you need to check it out. 

on top of that I'm sure there is investors in your area.. Find someone that is doing what you want to do and reach out to them. build relationships. That's what I am currently doing now, and it only makes sense to not try and re-invent the wheel. Learn from others who are already successful in what you plan on doing.. Then make a plan. 

Look at properties in your area and run them through the analysis calculators on this site. Those things are phenomenal. There is so many ways to learn, but eventually, you got to just get your feet wet. mine are going to be soaked in the near future. So good luck to ya and I hope to see ya at the top...when we get there!!!
