Commercial REI investing material for a newbie?

Hello BP!

I'm still a newbie dialing in my asset type to invest in but I can say with confidence after several months of intense learning I'm leaning towards non-residential commercial (likely NNN leases) or land + development. Why? Because I'm a full time working professional with no interest in managing private tenants, doing rehab work, or the like. I am interested in long-term buy and hold commercial leases with relatively straightforward terms. I realize this means I may need to go the passive route first and build more capital before venturing out on my own.

I'm seeking to understand ways to evaluate and underwrite commercial deals (to include due diligence), ways to add value after purchase (if possible - not just through appreciation), and the best approach to engage and add value to those who are already doing this (I've already begun to reach out locally in Md without success so far).

What books/podcasts/forums do you recommend to get me going in the right direction? 


Thanks in advance for any and all feedback!

-Jason
