Anyway, I have read much about the 1% "Rule", but there just doesn't seem to be any houses that could qualify for that due to the prices.

I currently gross around $120K per year and plan to maintain this income through the first many years of my REI journey.So far: I’m educating myself on the process of REI by reading books, following the forums, attending webinars, etc.

I am currently learning as much as I can about REI and spending 4-6 hours a day reading, listening and watching, along with occasionally evaluating properties. 

., I too have read several of the PA court's decisions, and understand that they may interpret 'last month's rent' as a form of 'security deposit'. 

Hello and thanks for reading!

To find out what data is available from public records you can a) ask various vendors like the one's you mentioned, or b) go pull some mortgage or deed of trust documents in the area you are interested in, read them and see for yourself what they offer.

Or maybe I read it wrong .

Start with the BP Beginner's Guide, and then read everything else you can get your hands on (books, the forums, BP blogs, podcasts, etc).

I read an article about the fraud investigation that on one of those websites.

However, I've been reading reviews that the in-class is the better choice.
