CNBC, July 1, 2020 “According to one study, as many as 40 million people in 17 million households risk eviction by the end of the year."

I am learning to be a quick study!

One study found that 80 percent of new year’s resolutions are toast by the second week in February.I’m not here to talk about general goals, because my main focus is multi-family investing.

I'm looking at areas to focus my studies on to not become obsolete between now and when being a part of the Real estate field. 

@Nicholas Tanner, first of all, congrats for getting in the business so early.If I were in your shoes, I'd track down a mentor and study under them. 

Hello all,I’ve been listening to the podcasts, read a few books and browsing the forumns, and studying the areas I’d like to find properties.

So far, I've began studying the crime heat maps, rents, housing costs, flood maps, etc.

I think it is one of those things you can't study for and learn on the job.   

Studying up on an on-demand replacement unless we sell the property.

@Manco Snead if you haven't already, I'd suggest studying up on all the resources related to tenant screening, and how to find and manage a PM (there are lots of articles, BP resources, podcasts, youtube vids, forum posts etc. on these topics)....studying up on these resources might help you figure out how to improve tenant screening and/or PM management...these resources can also help you figure out how to approach the PM about improving tenant screening...At the end of the day, getting a PM to do anything usually requires proper incentives  ...is the PM incentivized to thoroughly vet applicants, or are they incentivized to get anyone they can to sign the lease asap?
