I am looking for suggestions on the best resources, book and/or programs to educate myself on new property development.

Plus, Robin Carriger, who is one of the leaders, has a program that interfaces with the Tarrant County Appraisal District to generate leads for direct mail. 

If you could email me his contact info I would really appreciate it.Yes I know a bit of HTML programming and understand its a long process.

I would like to hear if the program is working for you.
