I don't really have a choice where I go.

So while my end-goal is be in a different (and hopefully more profitable) market, my experience level dictates that the smart move for me would be to start locally.As @Patrick Liska said, if it's a good deal, GO FOR IT.

If so, as a RE investor, aside from the main classes of the RE principles and practice, the program gives us a choice to chose one of these elective classes: Real Estate Finance (2011-04)Real Estate Appraisal (2383-06)Real Estate Economics (3228-10)Property Management (3008-08)Legal Aspects of Real Estate (3192-10)Real Estate Office Administration (3166-09)Escrows (1670-97)As an investor who only wants to sale properties that are my own, what class do you think will be more beneficial to me?

I have a local hard money lender who can do the deal to acquire the property but I want my refi option lined up ASAP.Thanks for any input BiggerPockets friends :)It's smart to know where you're going before you start.
