More than a tax strategy, these are education planning tools, and they need to be addressed in a broader context than just taxes.

Bigger Pockets is a great place for education and networking. 

I turned to the Diontalk Binder strategy which educates the tenants on the current price of market rents, section 8, etc, and what I could potentially earn if they were to move out ( In this case being 1500 for a 3b 1ba). they then realize this and know paying a $400 increase (36.6% Increase) would be the best option vs moving out, living in cheaper housing, or going to market rent in the area.

Do you recommend any resources I can use to educate myself of landlord-tenant laws? 

Hi there - North Carolina continuing education provider and broker in charge here.

The city’s diverse economy, which spans transportation, healthcare, and education, provides a solid foundation for long-term growth.

Quote from @Virginia VanOeveren: To start as a private money lender, educate yourself on real estate investing and lending practices, define clear loan criteria, and conduct thorough due diligence on borrowers and properties.

You certainly have enough liquid cash in almost any real estate investment arena.Since you are not in a hurry (good thing), spend your time in education.

I know other local RE investors well enough to potential ask that they take on my child’s continuing RE education and I think it would be in both of our best interests.  

I’ve been self-educating  about real estate for about 4 months now.
