Hi everyone - I'm the typical young, new guyI am very curious about the idea of flipping properties around the country in states other than your own. Many real estate investors today are finding markets that are more ...

Even a general business degree will teach you the valuable basics of finance, accounting, marketing, management, etc.Unfortunately with the information available on the internet most professors teachings are outdated.

I'm from Longview, WA, though Longview, TX always pops up for me on the Internet.  

Things I want to do in the next year are:1) Save money (do this anyways)2) Read Read Read- been reading this blog, realestateinyourtwenties.com, books and more books. 3) Connecting with people via internet- I could have some interviews and meetings with people as early as Christmas break when I visit home, thanks to my Uncle who is already successful in the DFW area. 4) Possibly get my Real Estate salesperson license- This is more of a question.

Kwame would prefer to do this full time after retirement as his fulltime 'job', so we have been ordering books and hitting the internet to read as much as possible.We look forward to the wealth of knowledge and information here on this site, and always willing to learn from members willing to share information.We have not determined where we will live after retirement but our options are Florida or Texas.

I'm probably part of the generation for new buyers coming, and some of us are internet savy on the differences in building materials (at least in my area). 

I did get an application from a couple that seemed very eager, loved the place, but my spidey sense went off about them and doing a bit of internet sleuthing, I found out half of the stuff on their application was a lie, their current “landlord” was really her sister who they were living with, etc… Dodged a bullet with that one.

If it was myself in your shoes I would really study the market there ...ask around, Internet search, talk to property managers etc. to find the best neighborhoods for both appreciation & cash flow.

You can also use the internet to target, maybe follow up with a phone call..it's no longer a cold call if they have your information.  

What is the best, and cheapest, site on the internet where I can download the forms I need to sell land by owner?
