Leaving 9-5 software job and starting in Real Estate

I've been in software development for over 15 years and leaving the 9-5 to stay home with our son. Turning to real estate, starting out with getting my real estate agent license and using that as foundation for investing! I'm in south central PA, around the Gettysburg area. Would love to connect with investors and/or agents in the area. Looking to learn and help whoever I can however I can along the way.

Hey lets go!! congrats @Kayla Upchurch

Something I would recommend for you is this website. https://www.areavibes.com/

I use this for all of my out of state and in state investors. This helps give them an idea of the area. Use this rating and classification system I have created over time to get an idea of the "Class" for the area - A class B class & so on

Here is my rating & classification for each livability score.

80 and above A+
78/79 A
76/77 A-
74/75 B+
72/73 B
70/71 B-
68/69 C+
66/67 C
64/65 C-
60/63 D
59 and below F
