It's the least tech savvy way out there, but might be the best one to start with if you have a few people in your area who just bought or sold and really enjoyed their experience. 

Hi everyone,I’m very interested in getting into STR but I work a full-time job which I enjoy and don’t want to quit.

At $388K the house is at least $50k below market.After this, we do the professional inspection and we find the followingROOF:- Two of the three roofs are flat roof and there are two leaks visible from the inside.

Great work and very motivational, I enjoyed reading and seeing the transformation of the properties. 

But what other real estate books should I read (not exclusive to investment) that you thoroughly enjoyed? 

I really enjoy the podcasts as well!

Looking at their collections, it's not hard to guess they don't want visible income and seek to avoid garnishing. 

I really enjoy my job and enjoy working on cars.

Not much new in the findings we didn't expect except for visible termite activity (doesn't seem too big or uncontrollable) and water damage to a bedroom window frame and interior wall due to a poorly installed AC unit and subsequent rainwater entering the house at the installation site (also reasonable to repair and capital budgeted for the fix).  

We do have a reason for spending time and money to provide this group for others:  We want to do more business, and being the leader of a group gives you lots of visibility.    :-))
