I've read a couple books recently, but bigger pockets podcasts at work mostly.I'm a painter. 

And then under $50k is maybe a couple. 

That's why 95% of millionaire households in the USA, according the IRS, are either headed up by a married couple or a widow/widower.

If you put in an hour a night then in a couple months you will be able to have a great idea of what a property would sell for just by knowing the size, bed/bath, and seeing some pictures of the kitchen and bathrooms.

Check out the events page:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-events-and-happeningsYou can input your zip and how far you’re willing to drive  Two upcoming events I’ll be attending are:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/621859-chicago-multifamily-clubhttps://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/623857-chicago-investors-meetup-octoberThese are great meetups because you’ll meet many people in different parts of their investing journey and many are very willing share knowledge. 

If you happen to know one in this forum, or perhaps one I could call or write to ask a couple of questions, I would be very happy to know.Thank you.

My wife and I bought a house and a couple years later we ended up moving out of state.

I looked at a couple of "typical" BRRRR type of houses but they needed way, way too much work.The previous owner passed away and the family is only asking $100k for it when the value is about $120k.

I would recommend coming to the local meet up a couple of times, network, sitting on the house in Seattle and maybee selling in the spring.

A couple of thoughts on this one...1.
