Hi Bernard,Welcome to BP, this is a great website and resource for all types of real estate investing.I always recommend these 3 things to beginners:1) Do a lot of research here2) Do not spend a lot of money with coaches, it would be much better to put that money to work and learn from experience, I'm not against coaches or education, but you need to be careful as there are some that are really bad3) There are many real estate clubs out there, visit them, select your favorites and meet other investors working your area.

I was going to order from the the State of Texas website but they say it would take 10-15 days.

I look forward to learning a great deal from the community on BP.Kim, I've already been to your website and will definitely keep you in mind as we get closer to the Spring. 

Their website: http://www.realtor.org/I'm not sure how it works in Florida, but in CT, you become a salesperson first.  

Hi Everyone, I am thrilled to have found this website and look forward to continue learning more about this wonderfully complex business, that is Real Estate Investing.
