I am eager to learn more from actual experience, not just books and websites!   

I understand equity and cash-flow are related, but what I mean is that I don't need the cash flow right now as much as I'd like to build a strong portfolio that can cash flow even more later on.I've owned a single-family rental for 4 years, but on mulitple fronts I felt like I've done a poor job self-managing it, so this Fall I picked up the Turners' book on managing rentals and that's what led me here to Bigger Pockets online.

Lots of threads on this forum and cheap books you can buy.

Anything more than a gut job is a plus in my book, I assume the worst. 

Hi BiggerPockets community,I’m an 18-year-old just starting my journey into real estate and wealth building, and I’ve been following the strategies laid out in books like The Book on Rental Property Investing.

I'm currently reading Brandon Turner's book on No and low money down.

Additional resources I'd recommend are:- The millionaire real estate agent by Gary Keller- David Greene's books from the BP Bookstore- The E-Myth by Michael Gerber*** These are not resources related to the course but are helpful for anyone looking to get into the business

However, if you want a well-designed, maximum over-funded policy that can be leveraged for real estate investing, there are really only just a few companies that have everything you need.Minnesota LifeAllianzNational LifeAmeritasI don't want to write a book here, so if you want to know why most other companies WONT work, just PM me.

They think because they're posting and asking questions, reading books, listening to podcasts, that they're taking action.

Do you favor it over RE?
