Hey @Arthur Smith welcome to Bigger Pockets! I found the Robert Kiosaki book Rich, Dad Poor Dad very helpful when I was starting out. Also other books he wrote as well. I would recommend One Thing, Hold and Shift by Gary Keller. All great insights to starting out. Those were some of my first reads when I started investing and learning.
As far as getting started or questions to ask. There is no dumb question, you don't know what you don't know and there are plenty of great people to educated you along the way. I am still learning and growing. We all are. Ask anything and everything if you are curious. Keep reading educating yourself and then dive in. Best way to learn is to make mistakes and have success with property. Don't spend your money on seminars and real estate gurus when you can take those thousands of dollars and put it towards your next investment.
Two things I would recommend is finding a mentor or someone you aspire to be in real estate and shadow them. Most of the time they won't have time for you, but keep being persistent and offer your services and don't take no for an answer.
The second would be the importance of forming a great team when investing. What I mean by that someone finding you properties, property management, contractor, landscaping, tax, attorney, agent, etc. You don't need to have this right away, but you will learn and it will change as you grow.
Hope that helps!
