Either way, if you are generating this type of interest, it seems silly not to just license up.

I am looking forward to growing my real estate company from the ground up and being able to build true wealth and help put my family in a great place for generations to come. 

Our pipeline is empty, which makes it easy for me to overwork.Most of our lead generation so far has been through Craigslist or paid services like zBuyer or Landvoice.

(Just the value of the structure, not the land)  With that you end up not paying taxes on much or sometimes ANY of the cash flow you generate, so that cash is worth more than what you might get if you got a $300 a month paycheck!  

I have since read a few other books that have taught me that real estate is a great investment for building wealth and generating passive income.  

Once I establish myself and begin to generate cash, I would like to look more into investing in rental units and flipping properties.I would prefer to be involved in the real estate business in the Pittsburgh and State College areas.Any tips on getting started are much appreciated!

Development is so expensive here that I see little to no possibility that a new home can be constructed and sold for less than a similar existing home and still generate a profit for the builder.

Most areas won't generate that return, some will do a bit better.  

My long term goal is to generate enough cash flow to commit full-time.  

Once you have all these numbers and can figure what you can rent it for, you will have a good idea of your cost to build and see if you will generate cash flow.
