We examine the Eddington ratios of dust reddened quasars selected in the FIRST/2MASS and mid-infrared selected SMIRQS surveys. In the model in which dust-reddened quasars are an early phase in the lifetime of a quasar we would expect the red quasars to show higher than average Eddington ratios, and we are now able to test this. For the 13 objects for which we have host galaxy luminosity estimates from HST imaging we also examine their position on the black hole mass - galaxy luminosity plot compared to local galaxies.
