Quote from @Lawrence Mitchell: I've read a few books on real estate and something the majority of them had in common was the BP community so I would like to see what it has to offerHey @Lawrence Mitchell, welcome to the BP Forum!

In davidson county most people book an STR to be close to downtown or at least close to somewhere cool as a secondary priority (like 5 points or 12 south for example).If you have an STR in white house it's going to need to make up for location.

Lastly my wife was a trainer for Floyd Wickman back in the day .. you maybe familiar with his Son Gino's motivational books.

Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.2.

Are you pretty close to the blue line?

Transcribing transactions from bank statements, posting transactions to the correct accounts, and then manually creating an income statement, statement of owner's equity and a balance sheet is a fairly time consuming process and I have not been able to keep up with the book keeping between my regular work responsibilities.What accounting software do people recommend? 

Estimating is both art & science and FWIW most professional estimators rarely get it spot on, usually operating within a Delta.There's tons of estimating books, software etc.

I recently read a book that mentioned there being a lot of power and benefits of a personal corporation but I'm curious as to when a corporation is actually beneficial over the latter. 

That’s a great ROI in my book.

I am looking to join a mentorship program to help lower my learning curve and until I find it, I am educating myself with books, as well as YouTube University and great advice from the BiggerPockets community.I do work full-time in a career that I love and is very rewarding, but I also know I won't attain my goals with my current job.
