Some of my favorites are: Cash Flow Quadrant, Emyth Revisited, Street Smarts by Norm Brodsky, Boss Life by Paul Downs, How to Win at the Sport of Business by Mark Cuban, The Pumkin Plan & Profit First by Mark Michalowicz, #AskGaryVeeetc.I have about hundred other good reads but keep in mind books don't mean jack if you don't act.

But make sure you revisit and tighten your criteria.  

As far as the reference docs, I'm struggling to find them as we revisited this a month or so back... googling "tax court cases short term rentals" maybe useful

I think where the book "The E-Myth Revisited" was great for explaining WHY you should have systems, Chad's article is excellent for a step-by-step guide for what to actually do as a landlord.

Hey @Lucia MatosI revisited the subject on a bigger pockets blog post several months ago:https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/8814/63630-how-to-order-the-schedule-of-your-house-flip-construction-tasksHope that helps!

Hey guys, I know this post is old but I wanted to revisit.

I would definitely appreciate a revisit of those numbers. 

This put those hight LTV & DSCR lenders on absolute notice that it’s going to be rough sailing ahead . many of those lenders will be closing shop and definitely revisiting guidelines if they survive the shakeout - That Sucks for me because I Broker for many of them , I had to stop taking applications for now.I hope it all works out , when the dust clears there will be New Programs available from some of these or some new lenders looking to get in .

Have another distressed duplex pending that I might try airBnB for my first time doing that.Q2 Finish my taxes on time this year...Time to re-visit asset protection (insurance, entity structures, and tax strategies) with qualified professionals. 

My big reasons as to why I'm getting into real estate is I feel like my younger years have allowed me to get all the mistakes out of the way by taking as large of risks as possible, and now I'm in a mindset of looking to building wealth through more consistent and dependable ways, and lately life has been nudging me towards insurance and real estate.Personally, I've got a little under $80K of debt I'd like to pay off, I don't have a family though I've got my sights set for financially preparing me for one in the future, and I know now would be the best time for me to start preparing for that.Currently being in San Diego, I've also heard mixed opinions about this market, so I'm curious to know thoughts on local vs. out of state investing being where I am.I've also heard opinions like "If you don't have at least $100k, you shouldn't bother getting started investing into real estate", so the thought of revisiting real estate with more capital has also crossed my mind.My ideal vision is to be more on the side of acquisition, sourcing and doing the deals, as opposed to property management and renovations side of it.With that being said, knowing what you know about real estate investing, what are some realistic paths for someone in my shoes?
