Getting started
Hello guys, I am new to all of this. I am very motivated to getting started in my real estate career. I want to start out by flipping houses and eventually own apartment complexes. The problem is that I do not know where to start. I have a full time job that I am not ready to give up yet and not a lot of extra income. I would love to get input from people on how you guys got started out in your real estate careers and go from there. I live in gig harbor, Washington so anybody that is close to this area I would love to hear what u have to say and I look forward to hearing your guys' thoughts.

Hi @Kyle Pease
I live in Gig Harbor too. I am a real estate agent at Caliber Real Estate. I work with investors to buy at the foreclosure auction as well as on and off market deals. Call me or email me and we can meet up for coffee sometime and talk about your goals.
