Ep 300. How to Invest in Real Estate

What is the best way to get started investing in real estate? The problem with this question is that there are SO many different pieces of advice. That’s why we’re excited to bring you one of the most unique episodes of the BiggerPockets Podcast we’ve ever had. In this episode, Josh Dorkin is back—and he and Brandon deliver a series of interviews with some of the past guests from the BiggerPockets Podcast, including David Greene, Kenyon Meadows, Andrew Cushman, Arianne Lemire, Darren Sager, Ryan Murdock, Tim Shiner, Anson Young, Zeona McIntyre, and Ben Leybovich.

After getting home from work yesterday I turned on the podcast and did not stop until it was done... I kept telling myself I would take a break at certain points but it was just full of amazing information that I could not turn it off.

@Mindy Jensen, I thought your niche of the "Live & Flip" was extremely interesting and would love to learn more about the tax benefits of living in the property for 2 years. Is there somewhere I can look for that or would I need to talk to a CPA?

I am in Flint, MI and there are plenty of houses that are in the $30 - 40K range with neighboring houses being $50 - 60K (so smaller numbers than most areas but still great potential). I think this would be a great way to stay close to my day job and get into REI.
