This is my first investment property; up to this point I was all about investing in the stock market but I saw the light after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad!  

I'm going with Rich Bolen.

Like many young investors, I picked up Rich Dad, Poor Dad around the time I left the Marine Corps and got very excited about the idea of investing in real estate, but I couldn't really see my path to get started.

Without bringing up the lease again and aggravate him even more as he wanted to talk to his attorney (according to what he said/presented he is a kid with rich parents with attorney), what some other ways to minimize the situation (ensuring no random security issue / damages on house and car), get my garage and driveway back, and get him to leave peacefully as soon as possible?

Not looking for a get rich quick, just an above average return on my investments 👍🏽

Like many of us here, I read the Rich Dad books in the early 2000’s but I never did anything with the wealth of knowledge because there wasn’t something like BP.

Once a house my brother and I co-own (inherited property in rough condition aka not getting rich off it) sells in Vermont, I will be debt-free and have some savings for a down payment.

Private Lenders, Hard Money lenders, or doing a "cash rich" Partner that will make you be able to do your entire project. 

Hi BP forum members,I read Rich Dad Poor Dad years ago and since then have always been interested in becoming financially independent through real estate.

A lot of these little places are building-poor but land rich, eg. some crappy 2 bedroom sitting on a 2 acre parcel.
