Getting Started

I’m sure that folks who have read my books or taken my courses or used RealData’s software know I’m a numbers guy, and focus on metrics and analytics in just about everything I write or post. But I want to do something different today. I hear a lot of folks say they want to know, from a simple and practical point of view, just how can they can get started in real estate investing.

I decided that instead of getting all theoretical about this, I would talk about how I got started. There’s certainly no one-size-fits-all way to get into real estate investing, but perhaps what I did way back when – which wasn’t particularly unusual – might serve as an idea-starter for folks who are just thinking about getting into real estate investing.
