In my experience, most of the online calculators are just taking an educated guess for you.

Bigger Pockets is a great place for education and networking. 

Can anyone suggest training videos, books, or other resources that would help educate me on the topic?

Education standards must be raised so that students actually use their heads for something besides hat racks (allowing them to actually earn a living) and have ready access to birth control (all types of) so that some mistake doesn’t derail one’s entire life.Slow down immigration, too.

If you plan on buying these properties using a mortgage its also best to begin the pre approval process and work with an investor friendly lender to help guide and educate you what the best product might be for your projects to make sure you dont already max out your borrowing power after the first deal.

I think you need a little more education and a mindset shift.Real estate investing is a fairly simple process.

You need to educate the seller that with the rates so high right now, a reasonable investor can't pay 2022 prices.

But education starts somewhere, and basic analysis and due diligence will enable the investor to avoid the worst investments.
