Since then I have gone down the rabbit hole at BP and we have pivoted to focusing on Out of State BRRRR investing a-la-David Greene. 

Once I got comfortable with analyzing deals and had a solid knowledge base from the forums, webinars, @Brandon Turner's "The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Real Estate Investing" and @David Greene's "Long-Distance Real Estate Investing" books, I hooked up with an agent in St.

We're out of country, about as "long distance" as it gets, and he set it up so the electrician can get in right after close despite us not being there.Like David Green (and many others) have said, it's all about your core team.

I am very green on that subject, I am trying to see how I would even start. 

Hi everyone my name is Paul and yes we do live in Paradise { it may not be everybody's idea of paradise, we get about 300 inches of snow a year} I am somewhat new to real estate.

Account Closed Gotta agree with your Auckland comment.If money wasn't an issue, I would love to move to NZ - nice beaches, lovely people, great hiking/outdoors, complete isolation from the world - sounds like paradise!

I am looking to get into the multi-family rental game but am still pretty green about the whole thing.

Books/audibles that have helped get the mindset and technicalities at this point are:Long Distance Real Estate Investing by @David Greene How to Win Friends and Influence People 12 Rules to LifeRich Dad Poor Dad Think and Grow Rich [GAME CHANGER]Might I add that I was never much of a reader...?!

I do a ton of loans with Green Bank. 

@Noel Green  Can you further detail the 5 unit you're looking to purchase: purchase price?
