Hello everyone, I am just starting my investment venture. 

  I have always been of entrepreneurial spirit. After my high school years I managed dairy farms for about 15 years.  Want to talk about tight budgets, farming is it. Throughout my years of managing dairy farms I also was in boxing and fix/flipping cars. 

       I have always been very energetic and I have been told I learn extremely fast. I had also done construction for approximately 5 years off and on. I spent 2 years as a residential and commercial hvac installer. I helped a friend of mine build ICF homes. 

     Last year I started a goat milk lotion business that I was able to sell after 1 year for a decent profit. I have by no means made myself wealthy, however I find reputation extremely important. 

      I am looking to get started in RE investing. Every step I have made so far to date has taught me multiple marketing and business lessons. In all honesty , teaching myself has been quite a chore without any guidance whatsoever.  

   I have read rich dad and feel I need an overhaul in my financial education. Learning from professionals is my goal.  

   I hope to find bigger pockets to be a beneficial source of information and guidance.

    Welcome to BP Jason! I agree, definitely seems you have the entrepreneurial spirit. Real estate is a fun game to play and your skills of being resourceful and learning on your feet will be helpful. I am a bit south of where you are in Iola. If you have any general real estate questions definitely shoot me a message!

    Hussein Harun Thank you for the response and encouragement. I am now driving a semi for the next 4 years while my wife finishes her degree. I intend to make the 4 year mark a benchmark goal. I really dislike truck driving but I purchased a truck in order for tax reductions. My truck is on a 4 year loan and should still hold 40-60k equity after all paid off . I intend to acquire some properties around my area and I believe I'm leaning towards multi family such as yourself. The goal is acquire enough properties after 4 years that I can comfortably and confidently make deals and sell the truck.

    @Jason Davids, I just want to start off by saying I am a huge fan of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". If you are looking to get started in RE investing I would suggest attending either a seminar/meeting in your local area for RE investors or contact a lender and ask them about the investing/borrowing process!

    Best of luck,

    Vince

    @Vincent Pace

    Thank you for the advice. I will be looking for a RE group in my area very soon.
