I recommend Barrys ebook as well, it is a quick read I finished it in a couple of hours. The course is good as well. good well.

JerseyGirl,
    How do you get out of state investors?  Are you telling me that people that have not dealt with you in-person would be willing to do business with you to buy a home in your area?  Or are you finding homes where the out of state investor is?  If so, how?  Thanks for your help

Hello!

I'm a newbie, I guess you could say. I am sorting and absorbing info. right now. I'm dying to get rolling, but I feel like a kid in a candy store. This website is way cool but it gives me severe A.D.D.

I really like your advice on bird-dogging! It seems like a great way to merge into REI. I'm looking forward to the learning curve, so here are my q's.  

1. What exactly does your bird-dogging entail?
2. How many properties do you search through for each one you find? How much time do you spend?
3. How much does a bird-dog charge? Fee or pts?
4. What q's do you ask of someone that you may wish to bird-dog for?
5. What q's would you ask of a potential mentor?

I'm looking forward to any direction you can offer. Everyone here seems very helpful. Thank you in advance. Looking forward to self employment, Brad

Hi all,
I've been investing in real estate for a few years now but only really just come across the bird dog concept. I now have a couple of people working for me on this basis but they have now asked me for more tarining. Anyone got any hints, tips etc or do I just buy Barry Grimes course?
