Mike -- I urge you to read up on any real estate rental book. I

@Nick Stageberg - have you been seeing an influx of nurses trying to book? I

David Greene's book is indeed excellent, it's basically a how-to.

The first book I would recommend you read is rich dad poor dad, it would help you get your mindset right.

@Barry Pekin I will buy that book! I

This book is a good primer and will answer many of your initial questions.

*we were promised a copy of the examples given of the system used to find and how to walk through it, but on Saturday there were no copies or no mention of it*THERE ARE TWO MASTERY PROGRAM PACKAGES ONE FOR $30,000.00 AND ONE FOR $50,000.00.The only system you need is to find is an honest agent (always, always, always check the comps in the area..that is where I dropped the ball and I trusted Enterprise Realty and Carolyn Washington and never checked the comps).The second thing needed for a successful system is a great real estate attorney and Attorney Karen Walker was amazing, she urged me to get an inspection, if I had listened to my attorney and spent the $400.00, I would have never rehabbed that property and not taken that hit when I sold it.The third item needed to have a successful system is a good general contractor, make certain you check the better business bureau, Yelp, Google reviews do as much research as you can before you retain and if you find a good one still check the status everyday by going over there to the property.I will update this post with the name of the book I read.In closing, Fortune Builders is a SCAM, why do you need to pay 30-50,000 and still have to pay for your property, general contractor, attorney and materials!

My suggestion is to read "The richest man in Babylon" book. I

The first time I read this book I was in my 20s and I had nothing so it kinda went over my head.

In my spare time I've been reading every business and RE book I can get my hands on as well as crushing RE podcasts which I feel is helping a lot on my knowledge.
