Transitioning from software engineering into real estate?

[Cathy S.]

Hey BP!

I was mulling over my own career path as a software engineer in the tech industry and know at my core that I am not remotely passionate about software engineering. However I have no better option right now than to suck it up and just take the pay check to save up for future real estate endeavors.

Just curious who else is / was in a similar boat. Who has been a software engineer or been in the tech industry in the past and flipped the switch and totally switched over to real estate?

I am feeling stuck professionally and would like some inspiration, stories about your own journeys,... anything is welcome!
