Knowledge is arguably the most important tool for profitable and trouble-free real estate investment. Buying, managing, and selling properties without adequate knowledge can lead to serious legal problems and substantial financial losses as well as the considerable stress that usually results for either.

Comprehensive courses are available in a wide variety of subjects related to real estate, including most aspects of the following:

• Buying, selling, and exchanging income properties
• Determining the value of properties
• Financing income properties
• Fair Housing, ADA, and landlord-tenant laws
• Taxation of income property
• Income property insurance
• Management of income property
• Property maintenance
• Developing income property
• Buying foreclosures
• Evictions
• Collecting judgments
• Community (Homeowner) associations
• Real estate leasing for business owners

Our long experience with “help” forums and other interaction with real estate investors and landlords has shown that a surprising number of landlords lack adequate knowledge about many subjects that are important to their success, including:

• How to buy, exchange, and sell real estate,
• The landlord-tenant laws of their states,
• Federal, state, and local fair housing laws,
• Federal and state lead paint law disclosure requirements,
• The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA),
• The Fair Debt Collection Act (FDCA),
• Hiring and employment laws,
• Zoning laws, building codes, and habitability laws,
• Lease agreements and other documentation,
• Property management principles and procedures, and
• Insurance, vesting, and other risk management issues.

This is alarming in view of the potential high cost of failing to have and use the knowledge. Adequate knowledge and application thereof minimizes stress and risk related to real estate investment.
