Two weeks later, I enrolled in a three night course for beginning investors to supposedly get "the REAL truth" about what it takes to be a successful R.E. investor.  

Hi @Nicole Robbins,We can definitely find someone that you'll work well with.You definitely need someone qualified, does not have to be a CPA, could be an Enrolled Agent or an attorney.

MY take is also consider a good Enrolled Agent.

I personally made the decision to enroll in Renatus as a student because I saw the value of being able to exchange money (unlimited resource) with more time (limited resource).

Proof that demonstrates evidence of intent, as specified by the residency statute, may include all the following: Colorado driver’s license or valid Colorado IDColorado motor vehicle registrationPermanent, full-time, off-campus employmentColorado voter registrationChange in permanent address on all pertinent recordsPayment of Colorado state income taxes as a Colorado residentWithholding of Colorado state taxes from wagesOwnership of residential property in Colorado You are expected to take appropriate action on all factors relevant in your circumstances.Evidence of legal ties outside of Colorado during the domicile year that demonstrate residency in another state may include the following:Failure to file a Colorado state income tax returnFailure to have Colorado state income taxes withheld from your wagesFiling a Colorado state income tax return as a non-residentFailure to obtain a Colorado driver’s license or Colorado IDMaintenance of a home in another stateProlonged absence from ColoradoVehicle you operate is registered in another stateResiding in another state between academic terms or when not enrolled as a studentAny other factor unique to the individual which tends to imply your permanent home and legal residence is in another state

For the last 10 years enrollment has done nothing but increase, along with tuition, and also the unemployment rate of recent graduates.

Rather than focusing on trying to find a class and enrolling, try to find a mentor who has experience in the type of REI you're interested in, and connect with them.  

This past year, I think they hit another high in enrollments.

My wife and I are looking for a place close to Daytona Beach FL Airport for my son who is enrolled at ERAU to rent for the next couple years now that he's not required to stay on campus.

You must be a Pro Annual member to enroll, so make sure you use code FALLBOOTCAMP for $100 off your first year.
