My goal is to become an investor, but I would like to take this course for its educational aspects and get my license to have access to the MLS. 

Keep up the great work self educating.

Like Brandon and David always say on the podcast, just doing your first deal, regardless of what it is, is a huge education in itself!!

Attend an SSA, State SSA or ISS show to continue educating yourself on the industry.

We have educated ourselves, saved up cash reserves, found a real estate agent, and gotten pre-qualified for a no money down VA loan.

In the resume they are wanting to know more about your experience, credibility, team, education, track record, and anything you have accomplished that will give them comfort in working with you. 

I've received 3 quotes to correct this problem, this will cost $11k-$15k to fix (they will basically drill small holes at the bottom of the basement to allow the built-up water behind the wall come into the basement, and then create a trench in the basement along the wall so the water goes to a sump pit, and then let the sump pump pump the water out of the basement to the backyard away from the house...)The next large issue is my 2 door garage openers can only be operated manually due to previous owner damage, and after 4-5 quotes, due to some other complications with the garage area design, the manual operation seems the most practical now due to cost and other limitations if I attempted to try to get it fixed.So my concern with the sump pump is, I do not think many people have those in my area, and if I were to sell the house in the future, it may be a potential reason some un-educated buyers may decide not to buy the home if they see one in the basement.

Physically seeing deals in person regularly and using BP to connect with direct owners would be very educational IMHO.

Just pulled out $20k of an investment account for a down payment and am trying to educate myself as much as possible for diving in. 

In the education phase and I'm kind of just poking my head into places to ask questions and look at things that pique my interest.Anyway, I've got a friend of mine that lives with his aunt.
