It is actually fun to watch and see some of the ridiculous arguments both tenants and bad landlords make.

But if I were you instead of trying to "go it alone" in any part of REI if you are new, find an REI club like @Nathan suggested and find someone to Mentor youe en if you arrange a small fee for a regular time slot to watch them work, an agent, an investor, whoever -- any successful person who's done successful deals and can train you how to think/look, how to select which *type* of REI might be right for you even.

I rented 2 rooms to a lady for $750 and have the opportunity to rent the other for $500.

Hello, I am new to BP, have been watching the podcasts on YouTube the last few months and decided to join the site. 

Two single women that don't know each other, but this is apparently status quo for how the International Center places their incoming refugees that need an apartment.Before I rented to these to ladies, the IC guaranteed them employment within 90 days, and their rent is paid by a stipend from the US government.

Since reading, watching the youtube videos, attending a free webinar, listening to the podcast, I've decided I want to get into real estate investing!  

Hi @Kyle Buyers, add "silicon valley," "California," and "bay area" to your keyword watch list, and you will see the conversations and the people. :)

Have you read any of the BP guides(under the education tab at the top of your screen), watched any of the webinars, listened to any podcasts, or read any RE investing books yet?  

Hi everyone, I have been watching many YouTube videos, particularly some by a real estate investor by the name of Michael Lush.
