They add new features and enhance existing features through updates regularly, so it's clear they're investing time into continually improving the overall features of the product. 

I am seeking employment/mentorship for after graduation to continue enhancing my knowledge and be ready to start investing as soon as possible.

Here are some great books that I have read and have provided some great insight not only in Real Estate, but also in life.Millionaire Real Estate Investor - Gary KellerRich Dad Poor Dad - Robert KiyosakiReal Estate Advantages – Sharon Lechter and Garrett SuttonThe ABCs of Real Estate Investing – Ken McElroyThink and Grow Rich – Napoleon HillThe Seven Habits of Highly Effective People – Stephen CoveyHow to Win Friends and Influence People – Dale CarnegieE-Myth by Michael E.

I have the enhanced list with assessed values and etc on it.

Some items that are unclear: 1) how much did you spend on the ADU permitting/enhancements?

There are also several blog articles on tenant screening, which is hugely important, and Brandon Turner's Ultimate Guide to Tenant Screening is chock-full of great advice.http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/01/27...As you'll see, the theme of automation (a la E-myth and 4Hour Work Week philosophies) plays a large role in this site. 

@Vernell D Watson - I do have a spreadsheet that I developed before I discovered the BP calculators and continuously enhanced for the past 6 years.

After this I plan to tackle some of the suggested books from guests on the Bigger Pockets Podcasts, such as E-Myth, Rich Dad Poor Dad (I've liked one of Kiyosaki's others that I've read), and much more on the topic.As I don't have the money to immediately begin down this path, my aim's to learn as much as I can so that I may attempt to avoid the common mistakes.

Ya be careful with innovation as well.Toyota now developing battery a battery that can last 1,000 miles.When it's commercialized Tesla is wiped out if they can't enhance their product.And the job loss would be significant enough LOL

For any cons, are there risk mitigating factors and enhanced screening criteria that help?
