When the cost of money rise (higher interest rates) cap rates increase. its simple investment fundamentals.  

Also there are books you can download And podcasts.Once you feel like you’ve learned enough to make a smart first purchase, run it through the calculators to make sure it is. post the numbers and we can guide you.Also read books like rich dad,poor dad and The richest man in Babylon to really get a grasp on the fundamentals of money.Congratulations on your start!

I have noticed the Trending category on the web forum is not working.

So market fundamentals are important. 

Hi Eric, I started investing during the last downturn, not before it, but from what I gather from my mentors who not only weathered the turn, but came out ahead was a focus on the fundamentals.

Does anyone use https://www.happyinvestor.com/ I came across this web site that claims posting good deal below market, below tax appraised value, investor deal etc.

@Ian Ippolito - Thanks - I just went back to your site, where the guides and background reading are the clearest I've found on the web, and immensely helpful.  

I have been learning by listening to podcasts, watching youtube videos, and reading books and blog posts (the BiggerPockets web site has good specific recommendations).

I'm not looking to pay for increased web traffic at this time.
