Hello Everyone, Just recently my wife and I had attended the "Free RichDad® Education Workshop."

If it is the former then I would say to hire a coach who can assist you with education.

What hasn't been mentioned is that before jumping into real estate investing, it would benefit you greatly to start your education in real estate investing.

If you could go to one real estate investing conference or convention a year for education and networking, what would it be and why?

I have started my real estate education by listening to BiggerPockets podcast, reading posted articles, and I have purchased and started reading  several of the BiggerPockets real estate books.

Using this information I will be contacting individuals with liens on their home that are NOT foreclosed yet, but instead using the foreclosure as leverage to buy the land cheap (5-10% of market value) from an individual.

Good points @Brent Coombs, am definitly getting an education in what not to do, but it could have gone the other way also and sold out fast, when we subdivided there were 0 lots in the area to build on, and houses were being built on every available lot, so I took the chance that they would sell fast. 

I run The Spokane REI Group here in downtown Spokane.We're a no sales, education oriented network group.

It might not be a bad idea also to YouTube the subject and to educate yourself.Hopefully, you never have to call for another crime scene clean up, but in the event that you do have to call for one, I hope this helps.All the best,George

@Jonathan Patterson Both strategies are great and work by taking advantage of leverage.
