The Fair Housing Act....and all HUD guidance memos do not distinguish between ESAs and other Service Animals. 

I am assuming with this scenario, the IRS would distinguish the property as an investment property, and not as a dealer or developer property if the intent is to reap the rewards on the property appreciation. 

Is there an independent path to educate oneself and still be successful?

To be frank most agents cannot distinguish the difference between a $1k foundation issue and a $20k foundation issue.  

My goals are very high for Real Estate, because I believe in always having very big goals set for oneself, that way you're always striving to achieve it and be bigger and better.

The research chose the period from 2012 - 2014 if I remember right and the conclusion is housing market is beating wage increase 13: 1.But before that, we have the market dropped by as much as 50%, and I believe most people's wages didn't drop or by that much.It does make sense that the valuation is getting higher, which means investors need to be more careful and distinguish investing vs. speculating.

Im a new to real estate and have a goal to complete one self generated lead by the end of the year!

They have another word(s) for doing a short sale to oneself...

You would first have to distinguish between performing and non-performing notes.  

Nothing stops you from visiting the registry oneself and ordering copies or looking at the documents though.I pull all they infor together and create the HUD or now the TRID or whatever they are calling it.
