Multi-Family Investing for Beginners

[Jad Haddad]

What are some of the best resources (e.g., courses, books, etc.) for beginners to learn about multi-family investing?

@Jad Haddad, there are a lot of paths to investing in real estate.  Do you want to be an active or passive investor, residential or commercial, and numerous other possibilities.  It depends on the time you have available, the money you have, your contacts in the business, your skills, etc.  Reading and listening to podcasts will defeinitely help you decide which path you want to start out on.

@Adam Lacey has some good suggestions.  I'd also suggest The Hands-Off Investor by Brian Burke, Investing in Income Properties by Ken Rosen, Multi-Family Millions by Dave Lindahl, and The Perfect Investment by Paul Moore.  Podcasts include The Real Estate Syndication Show by Whitney Sewell, The Jake & Gino Show, Multifamily Investor Nation by Dan Handford, and Best Real Estate Investing Advice Ever by Joe Fairless.

In addition to books and podcasts, I'd recommend attending a couple of events to meet investors and learn from networking and presentations.  Don't hesitate to ask any questions.  Most of us are very glad to help new investors get on the right track.  Do Google searches for events to attend or post to BP and ask for opinions about the events.

Good luck!
