Eldred (who's taken over the new editions).* Try this book to see if you're interested, even if the numbers make sense:* Landlording by Leigh Robinson (7th edition or later).
Another long-term option would be to seek a residential property manager's job.* Landlords would prefer someone on site who's reliable (knowledgable is an unexpected bonus).* You'd certainly get a lot of experience along with your free rent, and you'd be the first to recognize a bargain coming on the market.

I could start today and make a fortune. Too old and too lazy. Ah,
if I only knew 30 years ago what I know now.
