When a syndicator noted recently that due to 8 degree temps in ATL, THREE of their assets were wracked by frozen pipes bursting, it caused me a little alarm, a little worry---and then I went back to watching TV.

As you read these books, watch the BiggerPockets Rookie podcasts.

Just watch webinar of Matt and was considering them ... so glad I saw this.Now I'm questioning my judgement / research. 

Watching some of these videos and finding lots of red flags like that which beginners wouldn’t catch but experienced folks will know is b.s.

Let’s be honest, I’ve watched folks who jump into this game as if playing roulette.. firing off offers on duplexes in Phoenix or leaning on some “sure-thing” house hack in Austin without ever sketching out their plan.

To avoid the risk management/insurance that comes with tenants' wood fire use:I'm thinking to seal the chimney cap on roof and run a cord putting an electric Infrared heater fireplace in there, so they can still open the glass and get heat and watch TV over the mantle, but can't burn anything or have any flame.

When I first started, they said I would get results if I just followed their instructions and got indoctrinated in the principles of mindset.They told me, that people actually don't learn from books, courses, sermons or watching videos, but by having a "relationship" with a coach or mentor.   

I watched a webinar around that one. 

And cap-x, that's a fast way to watch great returns go to 0 fast.

Third, put the money into an account temporarily for a few months, settle in, buy yourself a gallon of your favorite Ice Cream, pop on the boob tube and watch a couple of good movies.
