Perfect...I've got that book...it's on my reading list for sure !!

Glad to have you here and thanks for introducing yourself.Take advantage of the BiggerPockets PodcastThere are tons of episodes that deal directly with flipping.I'd also check out The Book On Flipping Houses

In case you'd like to study up with some good books here's a list for you to check out:http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/04/14/best-real-estate-books/Another personal favorite is Equity Happens.

Keep these transactions separate and the book keeping separate as well.

I suggest you ask questions and participate (don't take over the class, LOL) hopefully you'll get an instructor who has financial experience that can relate the materials to real life instances and not just read the book.

I would also recommend the Section 8 bible and the book, How to buy and rent foreclosures, all four resources (Al, Lisa, and the books) should equip one to handle these type of properties.Great job and goodluck, this inspires me to find the same deal.Question, how did you find a portfolio like that, that had seller financing?

Also, since I am new if anyone can recommend any books that they felt were useful.

I learned it from Peter Conti & David Finkel in their books.
