Hello everybody! I'm studying for my real estate license and making a transition from a career in the fitness industry to the real estate field. I've lived in CA my whole life for over 20 years, and have witnessed immense growth in the many areas I've lived. Currently my plan is to move to Orange County after getting the license Real estate is something I've had m eye on for a long time, and after seeing colleagues successfully make it as agents, it prompted me to finally make the switch I've been a personal trainer for 8 years, so real estate is an entirely new endeavor. I'm looking forward to being a beginner again and learning from Zero

    Hello @Alexander Cortes

    welcome to BP! Their are tons of useful content here, and hundreds of amazing people! 

    I feel we share something in common as I too came from the fitness industry. As a matter of fact, I still personal train (it has been about 7 years for me) , but it is a great feeling not to have to depend on that income anymore. My mind became a real estate investor 4 years ago, and with in the past 3 years starting buying duplexes in Indy that cashflow great. Im an active wholesaler as well but my passion is now syndication of multi-family. I now help and show people how to use some of their savings to create stream of income by investing in multi-family. All of my rentals are in indy with a 68 unit deal currently in escrow in Indy with a partner. Will be happy to chat some more! Best of luck
