Just try to get on base.As for education, I started by listening to podcasts, specifically started listening to "The Rental Income Podcast" hosted by Dan Lane.

If you're filing regularly and paying taxes, your audit chances go down.

@Ronak Shah yes having income coming in throughout the month on a regular basis would be nice.

Tenant paid late on a regular basis and was just a headache for him to deal with.

If I start in Real Estate should I start in coastlines instead of regular areas?

There is also plenty of free content on YouTube if you watch the BiggerPockets channel.As far as locally I would search to see if there are any types of REI groups that meet regularly so you can begin to network.  

As you probably know Bigger Pockets hosts meet ups around the country.

They pay an atty to regularly review and update the leases for the jurisdiction.You can buy them for a minimal amount, well worth the cost.

If you mean a BP podcast, it must've been a while ago.in the mid 200s, like 240-250 I remember regular people that worked in their business. 

Ok, so how many of you out there cannot afford to spring this much hosting a nice meal for your family.
