I am not an expert by any means, but why move on from something you are successful at.

You have surpassed my knowledge in this area, so I wouldn't presume to advise you further. :)That said, I have talked with @Tom Keating about commercial loans, and I found him to highly knowledgeable and helpful on the subject.

I was on cruise control and quite honestly got a little over confident in my abilities and knowledge.

I've been on bigger pockets for a few months now and gained a ton of knowledge about real estate investing.

All this knowledge, expertise, wisdom, and friendships.

As long as you don't sign for another loan until you figure out exactly what you're going to do, I would think it would be fine, but I'm not an expert on such things. 

I believe I'm in the right place to start and build my knowledge in order to get off on the right foot!

First off let me start this by saying I am not a tax expert and you should consult with your CPA.

I'll check J Scott's book, but any Chicago specific knowledge would be great.

I am looking to get advice on tax reporting and book keeping, I do have some accounting knowledge already but would like to learn more.
