That doesn’t mean that you need to be an expert in all of these areas, it will just help you immensely if you have a basic understanding.

There are other expenses as well, but that is the basic.

Basically, I neogtiate and fund the deals, and my wife does all of the work in finding and training the horses.

Put about $5K into a basic fixup, and could use another $3K or so to be really nice.

The basic troubleshooting of electrical saved me several service calls and I changed out exhaust fans myself after that.

Is there any books, investing clubs in LA, or siminars that you would suggest to a newbie with basic knowledge.Im intrested in commercial investing, rentals "condos or apartments", and small shopping centers or office buildings.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance,gerald

It’s time to learn the basics and get started without delay!

The book lays out the basics, alot of which I already knew, but it was motivating and informative to see it laid out as a system to go by.

Thomas, While I agree the basics are the same in investing.

So when you sell at 20 years you only make a total of $58,000 (in this example you do so with no money down, which means an infinite return on your investment).I like this guy's point.It's pure basics.
