Realtor learning about investing.... new to the group

Hello everybody my name is David I'm a seasoned real estate broker working out of Charlotte North Carolina and I just got into REI. Being a traditional real estate broker for so long my mind is completely blown at the creative stuff that you guys are doing to put deals together and make money.

I have been on many forums before but this has to be one of the best most informative sites that I have ever been a part of. So for that I thank you.

I'm wondering if there are any other traditional real estate brokers that completely switched over to the investinging and wholesaling side of the business... and if so did they make a more profitable and most importantly enjoyable living that way?

Well, David - you are used to working a lot harder than I can stomach. My license is in escrow - couldn't take it...

Welcome to BP Nation! Friendly piece of advice - you've got to be careful who you listen to around here. For instance, these two guys, @Brandon Turner and Ben Leybovich...you can't listen to anything they say (especially Brandon)! They know nothing, have accomplished nothing, and are going nowhere in life. They have no value to add to you - just ignore them, and they have no natural capacity to 'splain nothin'

Good Luck :)
