Very true Tony.Although through video conferencing I can update my investors in China...I make it a point to fly out there and go there in person to regularly to talk to them and build on the relationship.

Here's a couple I remember from a video I watched.1. 

Their website is an absolute maze that only leads you to a 2 hour long video where they try to sell you training, etc. along with monthly access...the checkout for which has no place to enter the provided BP Pro promo code. 

Youtube usualy has a lot of videos that can help you learn new software but I have a feeling you may be undestimating the amout of time it will take you to learn how to use the program. 

Hey @Nigel Ford, I think Brandon from Bigger Pockets did a great job breaking down this subject via video.

Over the years I've had 100's of investors reach out to me about properties and after I give them the info such as a full video tour, analysis and even a 3rd party appraisal they will ask a question like "is it turnkey?" 

I read a few real estate investing books , YouTube videos , podcast and I think it’s time to pull the trigger .  

I am 23 years of age and I have absolutely no experience in real estate other than the videos, forums, and research I’ve done in the past month.

Watch some videos on youtube and it should give you a decent foundation to build on.Here's a quick use case with some easy numbers:10 unit property - Purchase price $1,000,000Annual income = 10 units x $1000/unit/month x 12 months = $120,000Using 50% rule - Expenses = $120,000 x 50% = $60,000NOI = $120,000 - $60,000 = $60,000Property was purchased at a 6% cap rate ($60,000 NOI / $1,000,000 PP)---Value Add:Increase Rents by $50/unit/month:Annual income = 10 units x $1050/unit/month x 12 months = $126,000Decrease expenses by 10%  - Expenses = $60,000 - 10% ($6,000) = $54,000.NOI: $126,000 - $54,000 = $72,000Assuming market cap remains at 6%New Value: NOI ($72,000) / Cap Rate (.06) = $1,200,000

My wife will take her phone and take videos of the house.
