EDUCATE YOURSELF!

It has everything you need and more including free online videos and educational courses.

For me education is very important not only for the theory and math behind the business as well as the countless connections you will make by attending but also it is a huge commitment to yourself to follow through and set the bar high. 

Lots of knowledgeable folks on here, and lots of free education to be had from BP as well.

As for myself, I think I owe it to myself to at least educate myself on out of state investing...

Friction during the investment process is a bad thing and I am not sure that most accredited investors will ever be very fond of turning over their financial information or having third parties speak to their advisors about their financial situation.  

At BP, you can access free education information and network with other investors as well.

Stumbled upon this place trying to research a company after attending one of their Real Estate Seminars because I'm skeptical and I like to do my research before diving into something I know little about and tossing my money at them for "education" that may or may not pan out. 

You can check Education tab above for more REI resources.

Not only can you network with other investors and comment on the forums about real estate topics, you can also access free online educational materials such as courses and videos.
