The book is in the bookstore on BP and will officially be released this Thursday the 28th and it is packed with information on how to protect your capital investment and make sure you handle things legally and thoroughly.

If possible I'd also recommend visiting the market you plan to invest in to familiarize yourself with area and connect with locals.
