New Real Estate Agent

Hello All,

My name is Kino Luke and I'm a brand new real estate agent. I'm originally from Albany, Ga and have been in the Atlanta area for the past 8 years. I'm excited about becoming a real estate agent and even more excited about becoming an investor. I have an interest in wholesaling, rehabbing, and buying and holding. 

I have a couple of questions for the experienced agent and investors.

1. I have a regular 9 to 5 and a family and trying to transition into real estate full time. Any suggestions on what I can do to make the transition as smooth as possible?

2. When it comes to real estate investing, would using your own money always be the last resort?

Hi Kino,

Welcome to BP, and congratulations on becoming a new agent.  I'm also a brand new agent.  I've been investing in flips and rehab/rentals for a few years but first time on the agent side of this business.

Best of luck to you!  Tom
