Left my 9-5 as a CPA, looking to transition into Real Estate Acquisitions

[Max Gabriel]

Hi All --

I have posted here once or twice before.

In previous years, I had come into some capital, approximately ~$5M. Much of which is cash, some is in stocks/bonds/fixed income. 

Previously, I had been working two big corporate jobs, mainly in a back office accounting/tax function; however, after a series of life events, I realized life was too short to spend your days doing work you despise, plus, the money I was making at my 9-5 was not that exciting. I consider myself more personable than your prototypical accountant, and want to transition into the world of RE deal making, where I could interact with others, and utilize my capital to assist me in generating some passive income, slowly increasing my portfolio to the point where I do not need to work the 9-5 and prioritize spending time with family. 

I'm looking to connect with established professionals in the space who could assist in steering me in the right direction.

Cheers!
