Thank you, thank you, thank you
You’re welcome X3
There must be some type of mind reading going on because this is exactly what I’ve been looking for since I’ve joined the site this year. This site has so much info I have a million tabs open.I really appreciate this!
Jerome – I always have a million tabs open as well. I’m glad you’re excited about the guide. Dig in and put it to use!
To Joshua and the rest of the BP team, you guys rock!! You folks bring such great value to this site, thank you so much for this awesome material, this will surely help in my coming endeavors!
Thanks for the very kind message, Brandon. We work hard to make sure our visitors get an immense amount of value out of the site. This guide is no different. Please share it when you can!
Absolutely incredible!
I can only imagine how long this took to put together. You guys go above and beyond each and every day.
This is something I’ve wanted to do for many years now, Danny. With Brandon’t help, we were able to make the idea come to life. We’ve worked MANY long hours on it, and I’m glad it shows. Spread the word . . .
Great information here, I am interested in reading this and hope to learn some great information about investing. I believe it is never too late to learn different avenues and improve yourself and strategy for how you invest. Thanks for sharing this information.
Julie – It is NEVER too late. Dig into the guide and get your plan together!
Thanks for the insight I look forward becoming an established investor and sharing my knowledge.
Make it happen, Ron!
Congrats guys – this is a HUGE accomplishment. Nice work. I can’t wait to get a signed copy
Josh,
Outstanding. This is one of the many reasons BP is far and away better than any other RE information site on the web.
I look forward to reading the guide. I’m sure there will be some great nuggets of wisdom in there. I consider myself only 2 steps above rookie as it is and I still get asked this question quite frequently. It will be nice to give them a free resource to help build their internal fire.

Hey Jason –
Thanks for the message. I think the fundamental difference between BP and other sites in the space is that we care more about our users than making money off them. Please go through it and let us know your thoughts. Of course, I think you’ll find it to be quite good. If you agree, do share it online however you can. We want it to help as many people as it can.
Josh
Hey Guys – Do you have a “printable version”?
Sharon
Not at the moment, Sharon.
Superior! I haven’t made it all through yet, but I certainly will! I just wanted to say the best piece of advise to all the beginners by far! I find this very good because it has answered many of my questions. The aspekt that I love the most- this article is about real life. It’s not about foolish dreams of building extreme wealth with no commitment. This guide has grown a bit of fear in me. Not sort of terror, but I am feeling a little fear (which I didn’t have before) and stress, which is good. It means that I am starting to understand the hard work and the responsibilities of a real estate investor.
Many thanks!
Siim –
The gurus will tell you that it is easy — we want to give a realistic look at the life of an investor. The fear is good . . . it will help you be methodical. Just get that plan together using the lessons from the guide and I’m sure the fear will subside. There’s no better way to lose the fear than being prepared.
Thanks for the valuable information.
No problem, Rose. Just put the guide to good use!
