I haven’t even looked at properties because I feel I need to study how to find deals first.So I was wondering if any experienced biggerpockets peeps here have any strong first-timer suggestions, tips, advice, etc. for a brother on the financial IQ grind?

Possibly a 2nd attorney if the prior contractor (if improper work caused the issue) or the city (failure to maintain or test the pipes) to be sued.  

There was a small building that they used to give out drink's and food from that he would maintain.

I was wondering for your rental properties do you have your tenant's maintain the lawn in the summer and shovel snow/apply salt in winter?

Shortly before the pandemic a study was released.  

I just attended the weekly (on Thursdays) Real Estate Study Meetup for Millennials and plan on going again next week.

I have been studying and preparing for some time and am finally ready to begin investing in real estate.
