Hi Koen, For me it was when I was listening to podcasts and understanding what they were saying.

So I’ve listen to the BP podcast and they’ve said to call as many banks in your area to get the best rate.

I've heard about owner-occupied portfolio loans on a few different podcasts but rarely see it being talked about.Does anyone have any first hand experience or insight they could share about the possible options?

Continue to educate yourself using books, podcasts, and internet resources.

To begin, learn all you can by reading books, listening to podcasts, checking websites, and joining groups like REIAs.

I heard about Land Geek on a podcast and I'm watching his free videos on the website and I understand the general process but I'm wondering if you found a course that is helpful and provides some of the details.

If a client does ask me while present at an inspection however, I would give him a verbal ballpark because I listen to construction podcasts and can point them to where that guess comes from.

Hello, I think it’s really awesome that you’re just now beginning and you are already coming to the forums to learn so the first thing you need to do is to continue to stay on the forms and you also need to be reading all of the bigger pocketbook and start listening to their podcast to soak up as much knowledge as you can and as long as you do that, you will have all the knowledge you need to start and regarding your question I do not advise to buy a single-family house just to live in it without a rental property aspect so it’s OK if you want to live in the house as well but you will have to either get a multifamily property or you could also buy a single-family home and rent out the other rooms  now see when you have a property that you use just for your family then you have to pay the mortgage every month which is building your equity, but that responsibility is solely on you whereas if it has some sort of rental property aspect, there will be other people helping you build that equity if you were to buy a property just for yourself that is something that will be taking money out of your pocket every month while as a rental property if you buy right will be putting money in your pocket every month the only exception to what I just said is if you buy a property for yourself or just for your family to live in, you could do a live-in flip to where as you’re living in the property you rehab it while your living there and if you buy right with enough knowledge, then when you turn around to sell the property, you will make profit

I recently heard on BiggerPockets podcast about Cleveland and St.

Killer podcast too Marco Santarelli .
