To get a jump start on my investments would it be smart to save even more for a longer amount of time, for a larger/nicer house (the classic American Dream house) to take advantage of the small down payment?

Since the original post did not specify anything about specific topic, quality or experience.My vote for best classic course is Mike Cantu's "Don't get voted off real estate island."

That is classic......good for him!

There’s always the classic colors like Sherwin-Williams Navajo white or Ben Moore Dove White(pretty bright).  

@Keith Ellis If someone were starting from scratch, I'd have them read the following four classics in order:1) Rich Dad, Poor Dad - Robert KiyosakiThis book shifts your mindset2) The Millionaire Real Estate Investor - Gary KellerSimilar to Kiyosaki's RDPD, Keller touches on mindset.

I've had the classic "Let me pick your brain" lunch with a couple of investors who own property.

@Rodney Turner - I'll piggy back on the wise words by my fellow investors and realtors in the area, @Charlie Cameron and @James Byrd, with the classic response of "It depends." lolIn general, Santa Rosa Beach (and most of 30A for that matter) just doesn't seem to produce as much for the price as you would see in Destin/Miramar Beach or PCB; however, that is a gross generalization. 

This is a classic case of the government creating problems and then enacting more controls and restrictions in a futile attempt to fix the problems it created.

Awww, darn, I tried to post a link of that classic video from SNL of Eddie Murphy as convict Tyrone Greene reading his original poem, "Cill My Landlord". 

Attributing the success you have had with digital marketing and subsequently asserting that lists do not work, is a classic example of misunderstanding 'correlation' and 'causation'.
