There seem to be so many paths to take in real estate investing. There is so much to learn. I seem to be having trouble focusing on what to learn. I did get my real estate math down better. I feel that I can evaluate a deal. I still need to learn how to estimate fix up costs. The general consensus is that this one is learned in the trenches, and only by experience.
The other aspects of what to learn are conveyance, law, asset protection, marketing, and more.
After much self debate, I decided to purchase an online broker license program. I may, or may not actually get the license. But the cost of learning real estate principles and practices via this program seems cheaper than most seminars and programs on real estate investing. And so far I am learning a lot. If I decide to actually take the brokers exam, I should be ready by December. I do find the niche of eco brokering interesting. But I’d rather market myself as an investor, with a broker’s license.
A lot of craziness in the financial world lately. I am just laying low. Learning basic principles, such as how to take title to a property.
