I've read several books, listened to hundreds of podcast's and watched dozens of webinar and BP YouTube videos in preparation for my first investment.

I rented out a tiny commercial space to some ladies that wanted to open a retail clothing store. 10 days after move in they had a falling out and one of them moved her portion of the merchandise out of the store the next day.

I also discovered some excellent YouTube channels that discuss test material and sample questions, which I watched regularly.

I own a rental on longboat, you just have to watch rules closely for the city you buy in and also the complex if its a condo. 

ive watched some youtube videos of foreignors rehabbing old farm houses in Japan, just do a search for them.

I'm particularly passionate about long term investments in Metro Atlanta.Outside of real estate, I enjoy watching sports, running, and spending time with my family!

Someone has been watching to much HGTV.

I'm based in Dallas.Not really mate, "people buy people" and I never was a fan of "promoting" my business or selling crap from stage.But now that I think of it, might get some branded stand up banners, quick fold up picnic table, 3 pretty ladies and just have a set up in the lobby hahaJokes

The rest about dd and bidding etc you pick up along the way and getting better over time.... experience comes Yup in my courthouse steps foreclosure buying days you would have maybe 3 to 5 real bidders and 30 looky loo's.. they watch you buy some property then come up to you and ask how we do it. 

One of my properties the city condemned it and had the lady removed before I bought it, and it was so full of roaches they had to tent the entire house and cut away the bottom third of drywall from rot and mold.
