In the Indiana area, I know of either RECP online school however it is around $600 and mails a hard cover book to you or express real estate which is around $400 and you get three e-books.

There are platforms (one, in particular, I can think of) that will help you bring a certain level of automation to that rental management process (ie. automatically syndicating a single listing to 10+ major listing sites, thorough tenant screening with full background checks, digital lease creation, automated online rent collection, and maintenance tracking - all from within your account).

They get a digital receipt and we don't have to think about it, go to the bank, etc.

I think it would be more productive to formulate a digital campaign.

There are a lot of great options out there; aside from providing the basics (ie. listing tool to get the property published to 10+ major sites, scheduling tool to schedule viewings, tenant screening with comprehensive applications which include nationwide criminal background checks + credit checks + eviction history, digital lease creation tool, rent collection tool, and maintenance tracking tool), some services also offer your tenants additional capabilities which makes it an easier sell on your end when getting them to transition over (ie. their ability to report on-time rent payments to the credit bureaus; this can create an added incentive for making sure they pay that rent on time).

The "learn" tab at the top of the page has some e-books for you to start on.

Anybody who has done this have feedback on their experience with taking RE courses digitally?

(won't let me tag her).https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12/topics/839464-real-estate-investors-in-sf-bay-areaThere are lots of local/digital meetups.

To me, I would need a pretty good idea of at least high single digit appreciation for the next several years on this property for it to work.

I dig it.
