I do not and will not listen to the gurus on you tube.

Hey Jean,I recommend checking Carlos Devis, He also has a Youtube channel.Mucha Suerte

If someone could inform me on what this is and where to get really good info about whether it be a YouTube channel or course let me know!

I downloaded a few purchase & sale agreement contracts on the internet and from some youtubers to use in the future.

As far as resources, here are a few:* BP newbie posts (here), ask a lot of questions and stay engaged* One rental at a time (youtube and podcast) - I've pretty much modeled my investing career after Michael, as I have a full time job and it has worked out very well. * Dion Speaks (youtube) - he's got some great insights and thoughts on how to get started. * Rich Dad - I like his books, but stay away from his courses and paid training. * BP has a ton of books for getting started* Bruce Norris - he's a local investor and has some great content out there, especially for CA-based investors.I would also focus on markets that are not in LA proper, typically the best area for rentals is going to be 2-4 hours away from the city center. 

@Patrick Shaw if your mental health is at stake find another place (without snakes) and face the music if there is any to be faced.

If you want to keep tabs on the market check out my monthly market updates for the Milwaukee area on YouTube - you can find the link on my BP profile page or just look up my name.

Hi All,I’ve been doing some research into short-term rentals, and I’m running into a bit of analysis paralysis.I caught the short-term rental bug after venturing down a crazy YouTube rabbit hole one night.

Hey BPNew here looking to meet up and network with others in the Los Angeles area.I have been educating myself on youtube and BP and would like to start networking with other investors.Thank you for reading and look forward to hearing back.

Any books you recommend that have helped you a lot, or a specific youtuber?
