Hi Arty,
I think doing a R,EsTate course is a very good idea if you want to widen your knowledge in the world of property investing.
I did the Real Estate Agents Representative course a while back for this very same reason,
I did the course off campus through TAFE,The cost was about $350.00,
A cheaper alternative may be reading one of Neil Jennmans books, The book i read(real estate mistakes) I think thats the title, gave some invaluble insights in regards to real estate practices,
Armed with this knowledge can come in very handy when buying or selling, []
Regards MM.
