Hi Sriram, Personally I would take a course, especially if I was new to real estate investing in general, BUT what is best for you really depends on your learning style and risk tolerance.

There is an apartment that my wife and I are looking into, it's in a building that is 12 units, 3 stories. it's newly upgraded and in a great location, but am hesitant due to apartment style living being harder to rent than a townhome.

What would be a good strategy if an investor changed jobs / had a 1-time cash event that: (a) resulted in an $8,000 increase to monthly income (without a change in living style) and/or (b) received $1m without having any debt to repay, so the money was entirely free for investing?

It is free and has local investors interviewed podcast style along with networking opportunities, Its on the second thursday of the month.

I often see people post asking if they should pay down a mortgage or their student loans/car/credit card. And often times a reply says something to the tune of pay down the credit card because the interest is +10% and...

Because if a buyer doesn't have to get their own mortgage on the property, it will bypass the environmental inspection, appraisal, etc. - speeding up the closing timeline.

I know I could go drive around and write addresses down, but I will only have 2 days a week/ 3 hours at a time to do this, with my busy life style  I think batch will probably be best because it already has everything integrated into their system.3rd. when using services what works best? 

When the structure is serviced by an individual sewage disposal system, the applicant shall have the existing or any new system approved by the department of environmental management.

I would only recommend in A/B class neighborhoods otherwise guests will be turned off and you'll have environmental factors that disrupts your operations.
