And quite frankly, I doubt whether you can 'google' my advice, which is the product of 40 years of success in residential, commercial, investment real estate, trust deeds, private loans, and syndications.

One, if you are buying turnkey, visit with your turnkey provider and see the product they are putting out.

I also agree that some of these "gurus" make their living off of selling products and selling coaching.  

I recommend starting small and slow to get your feet wet and continue to ask a lot of questions.

We try to average 25-30 days to close during the slow season (winter) and 35 days during the busy season (now and summer). 

In every case it just made so much sense to do what I did - and the end product was so much better than before - that the investment was worth it.

We are looking for retirement income and having the ability to slow down and enjoy life for a while.

@Stefan Dickert   check out Myrarebird.com  they have once a month meetings it cost a little bit to join them but they don't pitch products and give some good solid advice from what I witnessed. the two gentlemen who run it are VERY knowledgeable and good guys to know.My daughter is in corporate finance at Intel so you can imagine with the shake ups how busy she has been LOL.. wish you the best

We have multiple vendors bidding and too slow means too bad, no work.

I decided it wasn't the product for me.
