We didn't run to the back of the room, we walked to the book store and bought $ 40 worth of books instead.  

You may want to alternate listening to the newer ones as well or maybe check out some of the books from the BP bookstore.

There are a couple of great books in the BP bookstore on being an agent.2.

In the newest book by BiggerPockets Publishing, New York Times bestselling author @David Osborn and foreclosure expert @Aaron Amuchastegui give a full blueprint of the foreclosure-buying process, including the repeatable five-step method they have both used to buy thousands of properties.If you purchase from the BiggerPockets Bookstore, your book comes with free bonus content, like a Live Q&A session with each author and an online resource pack for foreclosure investing—with worksheets, spreadsheets, sample documents, and more!

Make sure to visit the bookstore and start reading. 

After reading the book Managing Rental Properties from Heater & Brandon Turner that you can get here from the bookstore, one of the things mentioned to help with no shows, is to have the person confirm ahead of time and if they don't then let me know by either voicemail, email, text, or whichever way you like that no one will be there to show them the property, because the appointment wasn't confirmed. 

Check out the bookstore, really good content that will answer alot of your questions and help you grow your path.

I am sure you can find decent form partnership agreements online or through a bookstore. 

Military sites (if near a base), like AHRN: https://www.ahrn.com/If you go the self-manage route, make sure you pick up the book on Managing Rental Properties in the BP Bookstore and remain active in the forums.However, I would like you to consider using a property management company.
