A lot of agents don't want to have to educate someone who is broke and has dreams of financial freedom through real estate just to find out you can't buy.

Continuously educate yourself about real estate and investment strategies.

Lending laws change frequently, and we receive emails from Lightning Docs throughout the year explaining their updates to the documents we use here in CA.

Educate your tenants on how to report it to the police.

Thank you for saving me from some unnecessary headaches.On that note, can anyone recommend/endorse a reputable educator with experience in wholesaling?

Told them to do a drive by and call me back with an offer :)The person who called you probably just spent $15,000 for mentoring and “education”, and is now in panic that his 250 cold calls have not produced anything .  

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

Nobody ever went broke over a duplex, I know this now,  but I have to admit I had some serious doubts about this when I started 16 years ago, I bought every course I could find, already on CD's, this was post cassette tapes lol, and I paid RichDad Education for a one year coaching program (turned out my coach was a girl in a call center without any actual experience). 

I have one child under 2 yrs, and another on the way, so thinking about their long term safety and education is on mind.

Is there any form of education you could recommend?
