Is she willing to read a book or watch a video to gain a better understanding?

As you read these books, watch the BiggerPockets podcasts.

I could write a book on it.. and maybe i will one day.. but for fun watch Glenn Garry Glen Ross that is the land business of which i grew up in..

I will bet I can send you some great deal, but you won't have the ability to know they are deals because you don't have the experience to do the math.The biggest problem both new and experienced investors have is nobody watches our backs because everyone has their own agenda and the greed more money.What you need is to do is; rather than banging your head against a concrete wall, post the properties you are looking at, write as much detail about each property as you can including rehab costs, rental income, how much you can increase rents and then let people give you their opinions and advice.Here is a serious problem with people who own their own business and then we wonder why some people are successful and why some are not. 

Investor want to shutdown crowdfund company, etc,etc..Watch for the next edition of "the Greed of Real estate" in Netflix LOLWhat happened inside therealdeal should just stay there... lol

And or maybe they have watched to many guru or U tube videos on YOU TOO can do real estate with no money down..   

I have been watching some Youtube bathroom reno videos lately, and I can definitely say that this is something that I will want done when I am not solely dependent on this bathroom.

I guess when you think about it that way, they can't really damage things when all their time is spent sleeping or sitting on the couch watching netflix. 

I've watched the prices rocket up and read about all the west/east coasters investing.

But, watch out for any landlord-specific perks you'd miss out on.
