I love your book choices, they are all great reads.  You may want to consider adding some Tony Robbins into your mix of education. I consider him to be my personal "Guru". I started listening to his work over 10 years ago, and I still do.  I attribute much of my success to the principles of how he teaches us to "look" at things, treat people and handle circumstances.  I simply can't say enough about the influence his work has had on me. 

Stay focused, be consistent and I wish you the best of luck in your RE career!

 Hey Deborah!.... Yea it can ( and is a bit overwhelming ) at times. I don't know where to start lol. Tony Robbins, He is something else ( in a good way ). I have his book "Money Master the Game" its a good read. I heard about other ones from him, but I have not read them yet. He has been changing my mindset when it comes to life in general. Exactly! He changes the way you perceive life. Its like I have a fire lit up in side of me and other people as well. Have you heard of Bob Proctor, and Zig Ziglar? They are awesome!

I would definitely keep my mind on track Thanks!

Stay awesome!

I used a lot of the knowledge from that book (and reading BP) to do my first 4-Plex deal last year.  Another one I like is Multi-Family Millions by David Lindahl, it is focused more on larger multi-family properties but still a lot of useful info that relates also to 2-4 unit properties, especially the section on re-positioning properties was interesting to me. Best wishes for your investing future-

 Yes, Im on the 8th chapter and the book is very informational, as well as easy to read. The book is also a bit inspiring as it talks about how you can change the future by changing your mindset as well. "Multi-Family Millions?" Im gonna add that to my list! Gotta do some homework;) May I ask you? How did that deal go?

Best wishes for you as well

DREAM BIG!

There's a Bronx Meetup tonight at 6pm. If you can make it that would be a great place to start networking http://www.meetup.com/The-Bronx-Real-Estate-Network/events/229411845/

 Hey Nicole! I couldn't go because there were chores that I had to do in the house, but I would go to other meet-ups for sure!:)

Hey everyone! I just turned Pro today! Hopefully all is well. So I am a Newbie when it comes to Real Estate investing. First things first, I am not looking for a "get rich quick" thing. I know it would take time, there would be ups and downs and so on. I recently got interested into Real Estate Investing on my first year of college ( still attending ) when a friend recommended RE investing to me and told me the perks of it. I decided that today I was going to go all out. Anyways I don't want to get of track here. I am looking to get into Multifamily investing, specifically residential ( 2-4 units ). I am currently reading "Investing in Duplexes, Triplexes and Quads" by Larry B. Loftis, and that book is extremely interesting to me. Another book I read was Rich Dad Poor Dad ( don't get me started ) and CashFlow Quadrant (not that one either ) . I heard of the Millionaire Real Estate investor as well and I am going to read that one next. There are so many things I want to do with my life I could talk all day here. Any ways please share your opinions on these books ( I am unbiased ). If there is any thing I could do, you can let me know, I am working a part-time job, so I got some money, and some free time, like paint a house, recommend books, network, talk about life etc. I would be more than glad. I don't care what position I am in, its not gonna stop me from achieving what I want and others want! If you are in NYC lets see if we could network a bit, like go to a local coffee shop or something. I am willing to do this. I just want to get involved in the aspects of RE, especially when that same friend is gonna buy a property this summer in NJ! Once again I am looking to network as much as I can and help as much as I can! I am literally on BP every single day. I know this is a long response, but I just can help but write a lot ( is that a bad thing? ) So you can't miss me haha:)

Best to everyone and looking forward to a response

Omar

Hey everyone  I am an aspiring RE investor, I actually just turned pro today lol. I am 20 years old and like I said, I am brand new to Real estate investing, but I have a burning desire to succeed. I am currently a college student in NYC, but I am taking a semester off due to finances. I have read a few books like Rich Dad-Poor Dad, Cash Flow Quadrant, Think and Grow Rich, The Law of Success ( some of it as that book is huge! ) Now I am reading "Investing in Duplexes, Triplexes, and Quads". I am interested residential multifamily properties ( 2-4 units ). Since there is less chance of 100% vacancy and more cash flow, it is also easier to refinance. I have been interested in achieving financial freedom since i was 14 ( yes I know! ). I have a part-time job so I have a lot of free time. I am looking to network with like minded people ( from newbie to experience ). If you live in NYC I want to meet in person an talk about goals, life etc. Lets build trust and bond together!!:)

Best,

Omar         

I sent an email to you,

Thanks in advance
