@Chuck Masters haven't forgotten about you, man. 

You will find great "masters" of real estate here to answer your questions.

You will know you have mastered the material when you can teach someone else.  

This is not easy and takes time to master and effectively scale up, regardless of what the gurus and podcasts may try to tell you.

I'm a recent grad at NJIT for mechanical engineering and currently enrolled to go back and get my masters degree.

I am attending my local master mind on notes with other note investors.

asking price was 195K I counter-offered with 185K based on my calculations (NOI,Cap rate and other numbers to truly calculate how much the fourplex is worth based on the NOI)I have self-mastered the ways of calculating investments/rental properties to know how much is the right price, to know if I am submitting an offer at a discount, to know if I am submitting an offer at a premium, etc.some of the books i have read is the millionaire  real estate investor but found it rather basic, since it is common sense generally.I am in this for real estate venture for the long haul, everyday I am thinking about it, that's what keeps me going and pushing, it is fun.

A goldmine of information and a community of master minds.

I currently work full time for a solar electric contractor here on Long Island and will be eligible for a master electricians license in 2017.
