Thanks for the recommendation Roy! I have heard this book constantly mentioned in the podcasts.

Hello Bigger Pockets members!

I am currently in the learning phase of real estate investing. I am ensuring to take my time when learning the ins and outs of real estate investing and the different types of strategies available. 

I have been listening to the BiggerPockets podcasts non-stop and loving the content and knowledge I have gained already but, Iam interested in purchasing a few books that are related to real estate investing. 

Besides Rich Dad Poor Dad, what are some of your favourite real estate investing related books? Do you know of any that are tailored more for a Canadian investor?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and keep crushing your goals!

Cheers,

Duncan

Thank you Michael, for going in-depth and breaking it down for me! 

Hello, fellow BiggerPockets investors!

I am helping my brother find his second rental property.  We are both in the beginning stages of our real estate investing careers and educating ourselves daily to be informed and as knowledgable as possible.

I had read/heard from a few sources that you should at the least speak with 5 or more mortgage brokers to find the best rate when first trying to network and find reliable brokers. One of the mortgage brokers my brother contacted said having multiple brokers view your credit history will affect it in a negative way. She didn't really give any more detail, unfortunately.

From your own personal experience and or knowledge, is what this broker said true or is she misleading my brother and I?

Thanks in advance,

Duncan P.
