The "for Dummies" series is usually a good place to start, and they're usually available at your local library. 

But, here in Texas we have Series LLCs, which means I can have multiple LLCs nested within a parent.

Hi,Looking for advice on how I can start to gather vacancy rates and avg rents charged for last 5-10 years at a very micro level (each unit in the area im looking at).  The type of units Im looking at are multi-family...

If you are series about trying to get the golf course I would contact the owner (easier said then done) or talk to the city to see what actions or pressure they might be able to put so that the course could be clcleaned up.

Which leads to a series of additional steps, like annexation, zoning, densities, utilities (water, sewer, electric) and entitlements.A real estate developer is your best bet as a resource to conduct the initial due diligence and go into a deeper dive to define the project or projects best suited for the property. 

I also have an origInal "How to turn $1000 to $5 million book", along with a few books in the Rich Dad series. 

@Kevin Krysty Jr.I liked The One Thing by Gary Keller, The Miracle Morning series of books by Hal Elrod, and Gary Vaynerchuk’s Crush It.

In addition to spreadsheets, I was curious if anyone uses a checklist when analyzing properties; a series of questions, reminders, and information to acquire as a guide you use? 

@Peter StewartWhen I get a series of mishaps or tenants being IdIots and I’m frustrated ..I calm down and remind myself ” this is business ,thIs Is to be expected so how can I learn from this and move on “

He also mentioned that I can choose a series LLC which offers a little bit more protection and costs about $3000 to set up with anonymity $300.
