Hang around the forums, engage in conversations, read books, ask questions!

Wise decision :) Engaging personally takes the education to a whole other level.

I wish I could attend to meet a person whom is very positive about their experience but I have another engagement.

Right now Dan Gilbert is the main player in Detroit real estate.

For the BP blog posts, I use Feedly and for BP Podcasts, I use iPP Podcast Player on my Android tablet.

I'm using realtor.com and zillow to get a foundational feel for market values in these neighborhoods before engaging a realtor to run comps which I anticipate doing very shortly.So far I have identified about 30 possible properties using this method.

Engagement is the path to knowledge.

Otherwise, be sure to keep engaging here on the forums so you can grow your network!

Definitely jump in anytime and ask questions or engage in conversations.

Having read most of J Scott’s personal blog and following his New Construction diary here on BP, I’m fairly certain he’s the latter.Who needs crime dramas and cable TV when you have the original Dos Equis man right here – investor, husband, father, dog owner and poker player…- He once had an awkward moment during a negotiation, just to see how it feels- If he were to submit an offer without a price, it would still be accepted- The house inspectors often question him just because they find him interesting- He has won the BP Lifetime Achievement Award, twiceNow, in all seriousness, hold that thought and don’t change the price of those books!..
