You're in the right place to learn about real estate investing.

It’s great to see your enthusiasm and commitment to learning wholesaling.

I’ve never done a seller-financed deal myself and have only learned about them from BP and similar podcasts.

Quote from @Andrea Wellman: Would like to invest in short term rentals to start and learn from this forum and experts.  

I’m here as a 51 year old newbie to real estate investing and wanting to learn as much as possible.  

First, it fast-tracks your learning as an investor - you are forced to develop better time management skills, build your network of reliable contractors/ handymen, etc..Second, when you are ready to transition to a property manager, you are well equipped to evaluate and hire the right company.3.

Looking to help people in my community build wealth and continue to learn more about investments myself!

I read Brian’s book and still learned more than a few things.  

We have two young boys who also enjoy Japan and hoping we can all begin to learn the language and possibly enroll them into an International School during the summers.

@Dwight HenningRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.
