@Seth Ferguson I was definitely neutral about being an agent and now it’s clear to me. I believe that I can work with/shadow an agent to gain knowledge about that side of things but in terms of a career I think I will utilize my license to assist me in real estate investing.

Real estate investing is something that I never knew could be a career choice. If only I knew sooner!

Thank you for that wonderful advice.

@Irene Nash great point! I have been hitting a wall and it is frustrating but I would be a lot more frustrated if I couldn’t pay my bills. I think I can suck it up a little while longer. Thank you for the book suggestion!

@Anthony Dooley all of the points that you have listed above coincide with why I want my license. Hearing that you use it in those ways is music to my ears!

@Anthony Dooley Thank you for the book suggestions!

I will be checking those out as soon as possible.

I am definitely noticing that there isn’t much on investing as I go through the real estate course which is disappointing. However, what I am hoping to get out of a real estate license is the opportunity to meet more people doing what I’m trying to achieve And learn from them.

@Sam Shueh thank you! I will keep that in mind when looking for a brokerage. I am hoping to shadow someone and gain as much experience as I can!

Hey Aaron! 

Thank you for that advice.

I’m glad you said that because networking is an area that I consider to be a weakness of mine. I am reading every book I can on this subject and attending as many MeetUps as I can in my spare time to glean knowledge. My current schedule allows me to have th-sat off of work which is great! 

Are you an agent?

Do you have any go to book suggestions? 

Hello everyone!

I am currently working 40 hrs a week at an office job. I don’t love it but I definitely give it 100%.

I have had several things in my life that I was passionate about for a short time and then it would fizzle out but something about real estate investing has turned my life upside down and I am doing whatever it takes to get in and stay in the game.

In April I will be house hacking a duplex and I am ecstatic about that project. I am working on getting my real estate license and I should have it completed within the next 2-3 months. I obviously do not want to quit suddenly with no back up plan so I am here looking for advice on next steps after I secure my license.

Any and all advice would be appreciated!

Hello all, My partner and I currently have one rental property In our portfolIo. We bought it for 25k with 20% down in mid September, Fixed it up for 1k and rented it out by mid October. (the seller paid for several repairs prior to us purchasing) It is currently rented at $610 a month and total operatIng costs come to about $291 a month. We are in contract with a second property for $26,200 with a 2k closing credit. As you can imagine we are excited and can’t wait to continue doing rentals just like these. At this point we have several prospective houses in mind that would allow a similar ROI but we are trying our best to preserve our personal capital. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated to help us move forward in our Real Estate investing career. It’s Time to get creatIve! Thank you!

Hello BP! Has anyone had success in purchasing multiple houses in one lump sum? Any advice would be greatly appreciated? Thank you!
