It depends on what you want to do there are many people on BP who advocate what I consider to be a house of cards with borrowing everything you can to maximize mathematical return. 

I’ll get better but in this case the maxim “know thyself” applies.

well since U want owner contracts I would be following the public records of anything MOrris Ocean point in INdy there are going to be 400 plus properties that I am sure the owners would like to maximize their return on and one way to do that is to sell on contract..

@Aubrey HardmanI believe the answer you are looking for depends on your personal goals and what phase you are currently in.Phases of a RE businesss - Buy a Million(Acquisition), Own a Million (Growth/Optimization), Distribution (Maximize Cash Flow)If you are still in the Acquisition phase of your business, you should be setting all of those funds aside for acquiring new properties or investments to add to the portfolio.Keep in mind that the ROI is often better keeping the property leveraged by cash out refinancing and putting those funds to work as well during your growth phase.

I have kind of surrounded myself with avenues that can help maximize my learning and make me a better investor. 

I find some agents realize once they are good at branding themselves and generating their own leads they switch to more boutique firms with less fees to maximize their commissions. 6.If in the first year you don’t  go after building that pipeline, then the second year you’re going to have to work twice as hard to see results.Good luck and stay positive daily! 

They MAXIMIZE the story telling of the huge deals and  MINIMIZE the downsides and everyday smaller returns where if one thing goes wrong you could lose money rather than make it.

@Gabriel Benavidez I recommend maximizing investment in a Roth IRA.
