Real Estate Investing 101:
The fundamentals you can’t afford to miss
Real Estate Investing 101 just screams “Welcome back to school, kids!” doesn’t it? It’s a great frame of reference for anyone who wants to embark on the journey of real estate investment (or, wants to get remedial lessons after making a costly mistake).
The allusion, of course, is to a college-level course, with the course code 101, which indicates an introduction to the topic of real estate investing without any prerequisites. Indeed, it’s my belief that anyone can learn how to be successful with real estate investing, as long as there’s a willingness to dedicate time and effort to learning and doing the “homework” that comes with any program, whether it’s Real Estate Investing 101 or another important topic.
With HowManyDoors, you can get the benefit of all the lessons I learned the hard way, in the “school of hard knocks.” When I started my search for expert advice about real estate investing, I read through nearly every book there is on the subject, but I found the books really didn’t help much, and in fact, I found them all lacking in this key area:
All the books that claimed to teach real estate investing 101 only covered the “why” of investing, and I already understood that. But they never told me what to do next - where
and what I should buy!
So I set out on my own and learned by trial and error - and with the invaluable help of friendly real estate investment pros who generously shared their hard-won wisdom. With my background in online marketing, it was a natural step to compile all that I’d learned into an accessible and step-by-step online format so I could share it with people like you, “paying forward” the generosity of my new friends in the real estate investing business. And I’ve made it free for anyone to access. You can get started right now, right here.
What you’ll find on HowManyDoors is more than just real estate investing 101. I’ve covered the topic from soup to nuts and developed free tools like this ROI calculator and my Top 10 Tips lists like Top 10 “Gotchas” for Buy and Hold Properties. These and other resources will keep you focused on taking the right steps and making the right choices to achieve your goals. The logical place to start is the first section, Get Started, which shouldn’t take you more than half an hour to finish.
Stick to it and you’ll soon graduate to the advanced topics and exercises that will keep you from making the costly mistakes no one can afford to make. Don’t wait for roll-call, get started with the HowManyDoors edition of Real Estate Investing 101 now!
