Recently I've been reading a lot more and more about Real Estate and whats really caught my attention is the single family or multi family homes. But, honestly I believe I don't have the knowledge and cash to begin with that. I know a couple investment I can start with like wholesaling, Finders fee and performing notes( if anyone has any better suggestions it would be really appreciated). With the new year starting I am definitely aiming at my first transaction to begin in 2014 and I have enough confidence to begin so if anyone has advice it will be useful. Thank you and have a Happy Merry Christmas.

If you are a reader and can learn independently, first obtain and read a textbook on real estate principles. Next a textbook on real estate finance. Third a book or course on real estate valuation. After getting a working knowledge of these fundamentals you will be much more attune to the opportunities and risks in this field.

Thanks for the advice, I just have one more question and do you know any critically acclaimed textbooks that works best.(I usually like the best products)

Not to sound ignorant or anything but, how can you determine whether the deal is a good or excellent choice?

I've spent many hours on reading articles, forums and books searching for advice on how to start my RE career and although I've found many useful advice I still seem to find myself lost on how to start. I just got my job so I'm saving money weekly. Any experienced Real Estate agents out there who are willing to give me some advice on the best way to start. Any feedback will be appreciated.
