Great time to get into the market and there are plenty of educational portals to pick from once you decide what direction you decide is your best route.

It sounds like you are off to a great start, with some great education!

HI, EVERYONE,  I just wanted to let those of you in the Spokane Washington and Coeur d'Alene Idaho areas know that Next Gen REI Club of Spokane is going to be hosting a lot of educational workshops this year. our first workshop this year is a three day event.

Just look under the education tab.

I am  very new to this industry and interested in educating myself on as much of this topic and different ways Ican began to invest into properties before making any life changing moves.

That is why it is very important to invest in education.

I also know how to find closed comps to establish what I think a property is worth.The problem comes because private lenders who fund my deals want to see a "hard value" - not just my "educated opinion."

I've educated myself in wholesaling & attended RE workshops as well.

Read all of the guides here on BP as well, you will get a lot of education out of those as well.

I will,take care of the high potential equity based leads.I advertise on radio, TV, direct mail to commercial owners, and make offers on expired listings.I don't think you need a partner unless you feel you lack some education or skills that another can provide.I would keep it simple, I use a system that I developed10 years ago, it is call Control and Roll, control properties and sell at public auction.
