These are such great books for when you're just getting started.Other than educating yourself, I would consider getting your real estate license.

Very education that I have learned a lot about this analysis.

I will suggest you do your research so that you can be making an educated decision.I can chat if you would like to get more insights on these cities.I have rentals in Houston, Spring, and Conroe.Good luck and make it happen!

As a starting point, I would look to see if there is a local investor meetup group that you can be a part of and see if you can find an investor that would be willing to educate you as they are working through the process themselves.

As others have said, read the forums for info and education, but find others in the area and begin networking. 

That way you can make educated decisions based on your numbers.

Hopefully the market does not see the same rate of escalation that we did a year ago but the fundamentals look quite similar.Disclaimer: The information provided here is for educational purposes only, past performance is never a guarantee of future performance.

Hi Jess,I would suggest joining the PIG group for local networking and investing education.   

However, it does not help your case to find a partner when you keep stressing how you know nothing and are totally new.You really need to at least demonstrate that you have done gotten some education and know what you are talking about.....and have a good deal in hand.
