As Mike said, that's a small set of questions with A LOT of information to receive, it depends on how deep you want to dive. 

@Brenda Chen and I host a local real estate group and would love to have you sometime~~ Super great you're looking to get deeper into real estate.

She just bought me the following books *Not that I was peeking*How to Invest in Real Estate - Joshua Dorkin & Brandon Turner (The King & Prince of BP)Retire Early with Real Estate - Chad Carson (amazing podcast ep 293)Raising Private Capital - Matt Faircloth (Fantastic podcast on ep 289)Long-Distance Real Estate Investing - David Greene (Recommended by my hero, Andrew Cushman ep 279)Finding and Funding Great Deals - Anson YoungThe Book on Tax strategies for the Savvy Real Estate Investor - Amanda Han & Matthew MacFarland (both very smart people who talk in-depth and the new tax codes in ep 269)Super excited to dive into these books! 

Your interest rate will be lower on your personal residence than your rentals, and you can borrow at a deeper rate.  

I do want to learn before I dive in, just like what you did.

But after we did a second dive, we realize it’s probably going to apply to a lot more people than we originally thought.

I love listening to the Deal Deep Dives on the podcasts. 

As I am learning/studying is there any baby steps I could do daily to get my hands dirty and help gain momentum before i dive in entirely?

Hi BP Community,Before I dive into the details let me give you a brief background on myself as this will be my first time jumping into the real estate market.

Should I just pay an attorney or title company to dig deeper?
