See if you can get a copy of The Millionnaire Real Estate Investor by Keller.The Slight Edge and Atomic Habits too.Awesome board with many smart people having own suggestions and ideas to grow wealth!!

@Donte Brame there's the RI Real Estate Investor Group that meets twice monthly, usually the first Thursday of the month online for anyone, and the third Thursday in-person for members in Warwick.

@Sanjida RabbaniRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

A real head scratcher. 

But I just realized today lenders may not lend to me if I do not have experience as a business since I only just opened an LLC but no business done as of yet.I'd say my goal in real estate is to generate at least 15k monthly cash flow to live more than comfortable and quit my job in the next 10 years (I am 36). 

Hello BP Gang,I've wanted to be a real estate investor for a long time and recently learned that I've been approaching it all wrong.

Also you can get your real estate license at a discount through Premier Point Realty or Homestead Realty. 

And although it may be very nice of you to want to help traveling nurses, that may be a misguided model for your business.

I'm a residential real estate agent in Austin TX and work with investors for single family through small multifamily as well as owner occupied.

Welcome to the BP forum and best of luck on your real estate investing journey!
