Participating in the forums, attending webinars and reading the books are all great ways to get up to speed - but nothing beats getting out there and talking to like-minded investors.

Finally a 2 month supply?

Everywhere I’ve lived I’ve been interested in Real Estate but I’ve finally decided to look in to investing.

While on a road trip last week, I finished Brandon Turner’s The Book on Rental Property Investing, which was amazing, Ken McElroy’s ABCs of Real Estate Investing, and started Brandon Turner’s The Book on Investing in Real Estate With No (and low) Money Down.I’m extremely interested in the concept of house hacking and the plan for using that savings to help buy future SFRs that Brandon explains in his book and that’s what I’m going to spend a good portion of my time on researching going forward.

@Jack B.Three scenarios: 1) If you reinvest- yes it is traced to that activity and deducted2) if you use it for personal use - non-deductible3) if you hold on to it on your LLC account/ books, but dont reinvest - it can be argued that you are holding on to that money for future repairs and stuff and you refinanced/mortgaged because the interest rate was super low compared to what coming in the future.

I wasnt going to move in just make sure its winterized or hire people to be ready because they will be booked.

If they owe money and do not pay they are criminals in my book and I treat them accordingly.To simply decide it will not pay off and therefor is not worth seeking justice is a defeatist attitude.

I have spent the last 6+ months learning everything there is to RE, read nearly every pertinent book, listened to webinars/podcasts, attended landlord classes, analyzed countless properties.  

I've been reading some books lately and I'm trying to soak up as much as I can.

Your final considerations are Credit Cards or a HELOC but do their benefits carefully and pay them off in time.
