If just one you are jumping the gun on needing any of this. 

Also, on your first point, I have a funny story.

I planned on living in one unit and renting the other, this worked great.

I know on my new builds since we cant put the BAC on the listing the brokers bringing in Buyers just pop in what they want to make and well its more than I am willing to pay when I have to build the house for them and meet with them time and again.

Approach them now about doing it, provide them the proper forms, and instructions on how to do it. 

If you just want the knowledge, sure, take the online classes and tests.

They are like, oh I can do this deal, great numbers, and the next deal and so on..

I am under contract on a lake front house but still in the due diligence period - I just learned that it's designated flood zone A.

🎯 I get it, though—pulling the trigger on the first deal feels like stepping off the ledge.

Acquired 1-bedroom rental property, generating 30%+ cash-on-cash return.
