Thank you so much! @Michael M.  This was the exact wording I was looking for. 

Thank you all for your answers! 

So, I was listening to the BP podcast and the subject of how to do background checks on your renters came up. I was wondering, how exactly would or should you turn down a tenant that has bad rental history so to avoid being taken to court for "discrimination?" Pacifically eviction history? Has anyone dealt with this before? Do you just say "oops we're all full at the moment.?"

That is awesome! You guys and your guest are always nice to listen to. I end up learning so much. Thank you for that! Keep up the great work! 

Thank you gentlemen for your insight. It really helped me ask myself a few more questions!

Hello everyone,

I have no knowledge or experience in the real estate world and am currently reading up on it and trying to educate myself on various things through this site, books, and pod-casts. I have loads of questions that seem silly to me and am kind of afraid to post them. But, I figured what the heck, lets give it go.

Let me explain...Since recently becoming interested in the real estate market, I have been looking at my current job and how much money and how fast I am able to save for a down payment on my first purchase.Turns out not very much when I combine it with my target purchasing date. I was thinking about going back to school for my radiology tech degree to start with something that would help me get more income than I already have. Part of me loves this idea, and part feels like its going to be a bit of a set back as far as time goes when it comes to purchasing my first investment.

Any thoughts?
