I wanted to poll the group about something.I like to invest in neighborhoods where I would actually live.  I find I get better tenants that way.  One of the things I do to figure out if a neighborhood is worth a drive...

Do you have any study tips that might help me retain all this info? 

Thanks @Dashon Jones for the tip about meetup.com - I already found a meetup group in my area.

Thank you for all the tips in advance.

I will update you after I go as to how it was.Thank you for the welcome @Paul Timmins and for the tips!!

More importantly, do any of you have any tips to beat the procrastination urge?

Does anyone have any recommendations, tips, or insight into buying a property to rent out as a vacation rental?  

Been listening to the podcast and reading the forums to get a hang of everything.I ended up here because I was looking to buy a house so I set out to find out everything I could about the process and see if there was any insider trick or tip to get a better deal then just simply going to an agent and saying I want to buy a house.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.David

I live in an area that gets a lot of tourism & winter visitors plus we have a couple events a year that book the hotels & vacation rentals solid.
