That's how you build long-term wealth.3) Soak up all the knowledge on BP, identify your desired path/strategy, then engage people who are successfully doing that stuff by offering to add value in their life for the opportunity to ask specific questions about what you want to learn.- Joe

Legally would the tax sale supper seed any judgments against the property?

On the other hand, if the unit isn't occupied and a water leak soaks the inside on the second floor bringing you lower level ceiling down, you'll have expenses.Why would I attempt to compute the cost of a ceiling into my ROI/E for the next 12 months?

My name is Cristian and I live in Montreal, Canada where we currently have awesome -20C weather (I think that's like -4F)So a little about me - I started being interested in real estate investing after reading the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book which resulted in me going to one of their free seminars that resulted in going to the paid 3 day weekend that then resulted in taking their advanced training which I recently got refunded because I wasn't satisfied at allI then learned about a new program with ************* which I am currently following and seems ok for nowMy main issue is that I am full of a lot of book knowledge but close to zero real world experience short of calling a few agents, home owners and so on.I was let go from my job on October 10th because of budget cuts and have decided to go full time investor since thenI am ready to do whatever it takes to make this work because my mindset is already changed and going back to a job is now my ultimate last resort that barely has a shred of interest tied to itMy immediate goal is to buy myself more time - I am ultimately looking to replace my ex job income by the end of 2014 and then some - but for now I'm simply looking to close a few deals to buy more time financially speakingThat's it for me for now - hope to get a chance to speak to a lot of you and soak up all the information that I can while building some great relationships along the way :DCheers

I'm still really new to this real estate game and trying to soak up as much knowledge as possible.

Looking forward to soaking up the site!

Used a 43k HELOC to seed my investing and haven't looked back.

So now that I'm here I want to start with my real estate investments.I am very eager to learn and soak up as much knowledge as possible.

Honestly, it all feels a little overwhelming right now, but I'm trying to soak up as much as I can from the blog and forums, and may be ordering a book or two soon.Which is to say, I don't have any real "value" to add on these forums yet, but I am excited to be involved!

I could have possibly added value to the property by clearing, fencing, and seeding the land as well as building a small barn but that is a large cash outlay for what would have most likely been a pretty meager profit.
