Just start diving in, getting involved and listening to the podcasts.

Most seminars are an ongoing investment in which they tend to make the majority of "your money".I feel that you get a lot more valuable information from great inter-active sites like BP.Here you find hundreds of investors who are ready and willing to answer all your questions and help guide you to success.And they will not keep digging deeper and deeper into your pockets.Don't just take my word for it ,test it for your self.Ask any real estate question you can think of on a BP forum and see how many helpful responses you receive.

I look forward to meeting with you next week to dig deeper.

Welcome to the site, @Mike GiudiciIt is always nice to see local investors on here.Best of luck as you dive into your own real estate investments.

Everyone recommends that book, I can't wait to dive into it to see what's in store!

but before I dive into the details, let me know if that's actually what you're looking for.

I am overly and thoroughly appreciative of all the forums, podcasts, and Bigger Pockets in general for providing such an amazing platform for newbies and the more seasoned who share the same passion.As I am only 25, with no disposable funds or substantial credit history I'm really interested in learning about creative ways to dive into real estate.

There might be more deeper issues dealing with the manner in which you are currently servicing the note.

The new bigger pockets calculator tool is great and should be exactly for this type of analysis.If you decide to buy and hold you should dig deeper and determine your expenses such as taxes, insurance, mgmt, vacancy, repairs. etcGood luck,Haim

Your hesitation is your gut talking to you.I would take a little more time, dig a little deeper, and find a no-brainer deal.
