I also read a book about every two weeks about real estate investing. 

I'd suggest picking up Brandon's book "The Complete Guide to Managing Rental Properties."

We have been going through Brandon Turner’s book the Ultimate Guide to Managing Rental Properties and we love it!

Since I had a brain annurism and a stroke at 54, I have been studying about real estate investing full time, 7 days a week for about 5 years including book reading and that only takes about 2 weeks to read each book. 

Having no one to teach about tools or how to use them I turned to books, often checking out home improvement manuals from the library as elective literature.

@J Scott wrote a book on rehabbing costs and it is an excellent resource to have on your shelf.

I have been reading books, watching educational videos and listening to podcasts on wholesaling.

Also every forum post helps with getting the word out there for my book with BiggerPockets and podcasts with them, so that doesn't hurt either.Either way, even people who utilize BP for some of their lead gen will probably tell you it ends up starting out as work but becomes almost a hobby.

Most of the good stories have come from people that owned 20 to 30 houses at least and usually more.I am 61 years old and I'm bedridden so I spend 7 days a week, full time learning about real estate learning including book reading which I can complete each book in about 2 weeks. 

I have some questions while reading this book.
