Hubby's studying notes, so that's a possibility. 

Hi, @Judi Smith,Some folks from the Tax Liens and Deeds study group in my investing community are going.

I have gotten low as 5% from a very professional management company, but my rents were $2k each and they had several of my properties.My manager does not charge me fees when they go to the property, but their maintainance contractors do if no work was performed.

In preparation I've been blasting the bigger pockets podcast constantly for a few months, reading the books you all evangelize, and am studying to become an Agent by the end of the year. 

It seems like I am going to have to study up on how to get into rehabbing and selling homes.

Wouldn't it be harder to round up more cheap rentals to get better income and it would take far more work to get them rental ready for the work it would take to manage and maintain them?

I will do my best to keep up on my real estate studying and continue to move forward in this endeavor.

The pavement owner is/are paying taxes on and maintaining the road, right, or not?

First, take 30 to 60 days and study how and why direct mail always yields the best results in creating a permanent acquisition pipeline.We are buying properties this week from a mailer I sent out in 2007.

@Denis DeleonIt took me years of studying real estate, personally buying, rehabbing, managing contractors and tenants, running costs, forecasting, borrowing $$$$$$$ and making lots of mistakes.... before I could get a real estate license and with a straight face buy or sell property for someone else.
