Study the market.

I'm in central NJ and studying for my realestate licence.

Spend your spare time reading, listening to podcasts, analyzing property, studying the markets, etc.2.

But if you have done cost segregation studies and have 1245 / ordinary recapture to deal with, all of that income is taxed in the year of the sale, regardless of what you received for proceeds.Not previously as big of an issue, but in this world that we have had the last few years of 100% bonus depreciation, it is rearing its head more and more often.

It's the kind where you're sitting behind the pedals instead of above them - I'm sure there's a technical term for them.Anyway, I started studying and/or reading while riding and actually find myself going for an hour or more at a time and not even realizing it.

I am now studying to obtain my sales associates license. 

I have been studying for the past six months by reading books and listening to podcasts, and exploring the site's flow and insights. 

The idea that the very thing I enjoyed most could potentially make me financially free one day seemed to breathe life back into a confused, lost 16-year-old.For over a year, I continued to watch, listen, and read about real estate investing, as well as study to take my Michigan Real Estate License exam.

Study your market and your competition and try to do as well or even better.I hope this helps and wish you the best in this exciting adventure.
