Consume as many books, blogs, forums, podcasts as you can. 

I discovered bigger pockets, bought some books and I began buying rentals.Without providing a long drawn out explanation of my positions, just know that I have three 4 unit buildings now, a total of 12 units, all excellent deals, all cash flowing.

Get good marketing and promotion of the home for qualified buyer interest and move it off your books. 

I signed up as a pro member of BP, joined a webinar by @Brandon Turner, analyzed a potential deal, have been listening to 1 podcast per day for 6 days a week, have been reading BP articles, started reading BP's The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Real Estate Investing and Building Wealth One House at a Time, bought 4 BP books, created my BP profile, talked with a California real estate agent, talked with an Indiana real estate agent in referral, talked with a friend who's a real estate investor, asked friends for real estate agent referrals (even out of state like Nevada, Chicago and Tennessee), etc.Bottom line is I'm super pumped about real estate investing :) Just in case anyone is curious, I'm looking for a team of mentors, real estate markets outside of California markets, real estate agents, mortgage brokers/loan officers, real estate attorneys, property managers, contractors, insurance agents and handymen.

Things like, paying for personal expenses out the LLC check book could causes problems later.  

I've gotten to a spot in one of Brandon Turner's books where he is talking about the importance of mentors, contacts, and finding good contractors, and it's sparked a bit of an internal debate. 

We're all human, and in my experience, most people make an effort to pay their debts, it's just sometimes they need to be given a nudge, which is fine in my book.

Working for someone else and in the rat race...Growing up I’ve always wanted to be an entrepreneur and the more I’ve learned about real estate through books, classes, and podcast I think real estate is the is the direction I’d like to go with my entrepreneurial mind.

I am in need of a seasoned/experienced accountant to guide me in the process and also that could help me clean up my books to better track where all my money is going.

I haven't read that book, but i've heard great things.
