“No matter how busy you may think you are, you must find time for reading, or surrender yourself to self-chosen ignorance.”
– Confucius
In any business, field, or hobby one must continually strive to learn more, to become better at what you do, and in our case, to separate ourselves from the competition. I was asked the other day what I read, how I stay current in my field.
Well, I read my fair share of books, usually reading one fiction book and one non-fiction book at the same time. There are good real estate investing books out there – check out Chapters and get a couple!
I also read some business and industry mags – Canadian Real Estate Magazine is pretty good – every month they feature investors that have grown their portfolios substantially, some good tips about getting the maximum return from your investments, and financial experts that discuss proven strategies to get you access to capital..

Check industry blogs as well…I’ve heard the AG Secure blog is pretty good (shameless plug), but there are others as well that have full-time writers contributing their knowledge – check them out, you have nothing to lose, and only knowledge to gain!
