You are in the right place learning from the BP community.I have worked with a number of investors who have stated their investing journey this same way. 

I recently had to get some garage door springs fixed on my home and nobody would give me a quote or even  come look at it without charging me $75+.For all this I pay 8% of rent collected, $300 to place the tenant and $150 for renewals.

The BiggerPockets forum is a great place to start.

@Matthew McleanBigger Pockets is a great place to find an accountant specializing in real estate taxation.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.Consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for an accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

It’s a smart move, especially since it ties in with your goal of saving for your first investment.For skills, you probably already have a good foundation with your sales experience—things like communication, organization, and dealing with clients are all super valuable.

BP will be the perfect place to find a mentor or just take notes from others experiences to add to your back pocket. 

Not necessarily i could do the 20% down for the right place, but less than 20% would be nice, I’ve been saving for this situation.

Stay consistent and things will start to fall into place

Does anyone recommend knowledge sources on building a mobile home parks (websites, books, organizations, plans, etc..).
