Thank you for reading :) Hi @Kyia Raiford, welcome to the BP Forum!

I’ve since just gone it alone with help from books and what I see/read online.

I was able to look up the life estate deed from the appraisers office and read it.

As to your point about confusion in the future, it's our policy to leave the conversation and thread open and available for anyone to read, they can gather all of the information and make an informed decision for themselves based on ALL the information provided.

Don't need to read the contract, find a new HML.

Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.Here's a guide that teaches you how to analyze a property.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/rental-property-cash-flow...Finding deal that cash flow is the easy part.

I have spent the last few years reading many books on real estate, taking real estate courses, researching, saving as much as I could, investing (to increase my purchase power) and finally feel I can begin my real estate journey this year. 

My dream is to achieve financial freedom through multifamily rental properties and live life on my own terms.Recently, I have been reading one book after another, trying to absorb as much information as possible, and am extremely thankful to finally find this amazing community.

You can do all the book reading in the world and still lose your *** in real estate.
