As you read these books, watch the BiggerPockets podcasts.

I'm particularly passionate about growing quickly from SFRs into Multi-family and currently developing tools to source and assess deals.Outside of real estate, I enjoy long-form conversations with brilliant people, or at least watching them when there aren't other people around to converse with.

But aside from that, the marketplace "done for you" deals program is a total lie and I see so many people in there every day that don't realize this at all and it's really painful to watch that.

I also recommend reading blogs and forums or watching videos on how to develop a good roommate contract, house rules, etc.

You are watching too much content on social media.

It's unsettling to think that someone may have been watching our clean-out person that day.

Hello Bigger Pockets Community, I have been reading books and forums, watching videos, saving money, and analyzing markets over the last 2-years.

Does anybody have any advice on this subject, anything I should watch out for, is a lawyer necessary, does everyone have to sign the deed, or is it a straightforward process I can do myself?

I have watched folks buy seconds thinking they just bought a 400k prop for 50k.. that type of thing.. but if your in a rural area with not a lot of activity it can work..

In the inner City those neighborhoods tend to be densely populated with residents who own their homes and when there is a vacancy the home is normally purchased and flipped by investors watching the MLS like a hawk.
