I'm reading, compiling the suggestions I'm getting here on BP and generally starting to formulate more of a research plan than a real investment plan yet.

As long as you can resist temptation, I would suggest this...On-line courses are good, but can't replace the classroom because a good instructor can teach you the business as well as guide you toward passing the test.A number of Brokerages will put on cost effective, license training at their offices.Just understand that while there, they will market to you to join them.Good luck...

I suggest you read https://www.biggerpockets.com/real-estate-investing to start you off. 

So I suggest looking at the foreclosure lists in the areas your looking to invest and be quick to offer.

To get started, I would suggest asking an agent to send you emails with your specific criteria in the areas you want to look at.

Here is a Case Study #5 of a 1st lien note we picked up last year. 

Certainly not my area of expertise - suggest you isit with SA City Planning & Zoning and just ask questions.

If you were looking for something like Manitowoc, I would suggest looking in Ozaukee County.

I am acting upon the advice fromone of the myriad of podcasts I've listened to where it was suggested that I build my team of real estate partners BEFORE I close on my first deal.
