If you really want to make a dent, get a piece of property with extra land to build on.  

One piece of information I forgot to add was that the lease has already expired in October 2022 (Denver, Colorado).

I never go to a branch though...but having one close is always a good insurance piece.  

Home Depot has the unfinished white oak for under $30 a piece.  

I just sent out some marketing pieces and should be hearing back from home owners soon.  

Unfortunately, everyone does not get a piece of this, of course, but that is just because many do not do their R&D. 

in may 2019 wasnt until decmber when i got a new piece of crap carrier furnace that doesnt heat home!

I welcome any pieces of advice or words of encouragement as I begin my path in real estate.  

What was interesting to my husband and I was not really the "education" piece per say, but they talked about having access to:1) preferred lenders who lend at rates of 1-3% vs. the hard money lenders at 10%+. 2) Supposed teams of contractors & other investors3) a group who analyzes your deal before purchase - submitted on a "road map" in the software they provide you4) they also said if you do your 1st deal in 90 days and do a testimonial, you get a full refund. 

Sean Morrison Maybe a small piece of the pie given the (current) limited cash-flow but you won't have any mortgage interest to use as a deduction.
