Attended Toronto's Real Estate, Bitcoin and Wealth Expo

Hello everyone! My name is Maria. Over the weekend I attended the Real Estate, Bitcoin and Wealth Expo in Toronto (which ultimately led me to this site). Over the last ten years, I have been interested in real estate. I started off with buying my first home, and now that I am almost mortgage free, I am looking for something more. Hence, why I attended the expo.

I have to say that I was pretty disappointed with the expo. It felt like a huge pitching convention, and I left feeling sorry for the people who were sold on some of the programs being offered. Luckily, I escaped without purchasing anything. Partially because someone I met suggested that I check out this site. They mentioned that I could find the same information and have more support from bigger pockets for free. So here I am.

The best part of the expo AND reading The Ultimate Guide to Real Estate Investing, was that I learned a few things:

1. I really love the idea of real estate investing

2. My educational background and current business has prepped me well for real estate investing

3. I am really drawn to wholesaling and tax liens (still in the research phase)

4. I definitely need to strengthen my networking skills :)

I look forward to learning more and connecting with everyone! 

Maria
