Dig deeper for deals not every one is on top of. 

It good to ask them what are the different things they do in a project and what things are expected of you.We could go a lot deeper, but does that help?

If, like many houses, that crack has been there like forever and hasn't gotten any deeper/thicker than like an eighth of an inch, run down to your local home improvement store, buy a small container of wall patch, sand paper, a putty knife, some matching paint and a paintbrush.

Given the current circumstances I believe it will take me a lot longer to finish a books before I can actually start investing or diving into real estate!

What is a great way I can build deeper connections with serious buyers that make offers to reasonable if not favorable deals 75% of ARV minus repairs or lower with 10+ cap rates? 

My advise is to dive into the forums and listen to the podcasts. 

I appreciate everything and I will take a deeper dive into figuring out the potential rehab costs

Now I’d like to dig deeper and connect with local experts.

I'm diving deep into my education and realize I've got a mental block in regards to wealth.

Your first step to seeing your potential, if your serious about diving in with what you currently have - would be to add an REI realtor in the market of your choice (consider midwest areas such as Indianapolis: cheaper to get in with high appreciation over time).
