As a bit of a homework project you should go to the articles found through the links on the left of the page. Every day read at least a few and preferably more. In a short period of time you will have read them all and know from memory which article to go to when a situation arises.
If you have not joined your local real estate investors club do so. You will get a lot out of it such as “boot camps” at a fraction of the cost of what the big time nationwide gurus charge. The link to find clubs are within the same yellow banner where the articles are.
This does not apply to you and it is just me venting but…I am amazed at the number of people who lay out lots of time and bucks for a college education to pursue a field of interest to make money and do what they have an interest in. Yet, when it comes to spending a bit of time and money for a real estate education they spend years wondering whether they should spend under $200 on Carleton Sheets or some other course that gives them a money back guarantee. The multi-thousand $$$ guru camps are another story and I suggest you check with your local club as I mentioned above for that area. As many a RE Jedi Master here(I am not in that club) has said before if they had the information starting out we have available today they could have cut years off of their learning curve.
