Construction to Real Estate Investing in Atlanta

[Holden Katechis]

Hi, my name is Holden and I currently work for a Developer in Atlanta, but work in the construction department. I have recently discovered the world of Real Estate Investing and am looking to enter. The past month I have been listening to podcasts and reading everything I can get my hands on. I am still deciding on whether I want to buy properties to rent out or flip houses. I plan on getting my residential contractors license in January of 2019(since I need 2 years of experience in the industry). I also will use this time to keep saving what I can for when I am ready to buy a house. If there is any advice from people who started in construction and worked their way into real estate investing, it would be greatly appreciated! Also please send any book recommendations my way! I am very excited to learn all I can from everyone here.
