A business LOC is probably out of reach with just a handful of properties. 

Over the last 4 months, I have listened to all of the podcasts and have read a handful of REI books.

You'll be in very good hands.

As I have been pulling together capital to get started, I have also been researching markets, podcast listening and reading every book I can get my hands on to get a foundational education.In my mind, with my capital limitations to get started I love the BRRRR strategy, I think I can make it through the Buy, Rehab, Rent,  once before chasing loans if I stay in certain markets.  

All Risks is definitely more hands on.

I've been apart of REITS for several years as well as a silent partner in commercial/SFH, but now I've decided to start my own company and be hands on and get into flip & hold in Birmingham.

On the other hand, I knew several apartment owners and commercial property owners that managed to survive the last crash without much impact.

Don't go to someone hat in hand asking for a mentor,  go to then with energy and excitement and explain how you can be of benefit to helping out their business.  

I'm wondering if anyone has first-hand experience with Masters in Real Estate Development (MRED) programs and could speak to their value.A bit about me: I am 27 years old and own two rentals (single family) in Atlanta.

As an RN you are "hands on" and probably would learn more by starting the process of looking for an investment property than just reading about it.
