Curious if there's any place you'd direct me to get started, like a good book to educate me to begin this process.I'm very conservative financially and I've watched so many people here in So Cal get caught up in speculation with the housing market, so I tend to go at a snail's pace with my money.

Books, late-night TV, family?

I have read at least 20 books, gone to at least 3-4 seminars, etc.

We spent some time with those books milking everything we could out of them before the 3-day training.

Writing new loans and getting these bad loans off their books looks good for bookkeeping.

For example, if you operate two separate farms on which you grow different crops and you keep separate books for each farm, you should make two separate elections to postpone reporting insurance proceeds you receive for crops grown on each of your farms.

You are the real deal and a superstar in my book. 17K back in the day was huge money.I don't have a "job" and don't rely or live off of RE.

I have spent the last year lurking and reading all of the books recommended here on the forums.

Hey all,I've been reading and listening to books for so long on real estate investing and now that a possible house is here I feel like I've forgotten everything that I have learned...My dad sent me to a link for a US Bank owned home in my town. 3 bed, 2 bath, near the college. $97K and it would rent for around 1100-1200.

They should call the Book "floor plans for idiots!)
