Any good books to look at for those that are starting out?
Hey BP community!
My name is Andres and I am new to both this community as well as to the idea of Real Estate Investing. I was hoping to find good book recommendations to assist me during this initial learning phase, along with any advice that you may have for someone that is only just starting. I would very much appreciate it.
Thank you!

A few recommendations:
- "E-Myth Revisited" by Michael Gerber (this will have you working on your business instead of in your business)
- "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter (this provides a more foundational perspective on money)
- "Cashflow Quadrant" by Robert Kiyosaki (further builds on the "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" foundation)
- "Set for Life" by Scott Trench
- "Long-Distance Real Estate Investing" by David Greene
- "The Book on Managing Rental Properties' by Brandon Turner and Heather Turner
- "The Miracle Morning" by Hal Elrod
-"HOLD" by Gary Keller (geared toward SFR)
-"The ABCs of Real Estate Investing" by Ken McElroy (geared toward commercial investing)
"Multi-Family Millions" by David Lyndahl (This is on my list of "To-Reads". I've personally been recommended it and have seen it recommend on the forums as well).
Otherwise, listening through the BP Podcasts you'll find a goldmine of information to get your started in your real estate investing journey.
