Basically reading the books will fill you in on the acronyms for residential and commercial investments.

(Hopefully by my 30th birthday) I'm currently reading The Book on Flipping by J Scott as well as networking with anyone I can to learn as much as I can about real estate.

We Buy Houses Signs I call every single one of these signs that I see, I actually keep a note book full of numbers and info that I find out about these companies when I call.I usually ask them whether they are still buying, what they are looking for, what percentage up FMV they are typically paying, and what areas of town they want to buy in.While I have them on the phone I also ask them if they wholesale out any of their homes, if they do then I ask them to call me when they have something good.

As much as I've read on this site and books and listened to BP podcasts, my brain has frozen.

I'm just finishing up J Scott's books, which have been extremely valuable too.

He said he would be willing to book the work at his cost.

Here is a list of great books: The Best Real Estate Books Ever Keep us posted on how things are going & take part in conversations on the forums.

I haven't read the book but this was written by @jscott http://www.biggerpockets.com/flippingbook He seems to be pretty successful flipping homes.Good luck

The concept is easy, doing them well requires knowledge, more so than any book or program would disclose.

If you guys could point me to any helpful resources I should read (besides the beginner's book) that would be awesome.Thank you!
