Better late than never in Portland

Hello Everyone!!

I suppose it is time for me to stop reading all the posts and introduce myself. 

My journey into R.E. came to be in 2005 at 20 years old. I had become a Land surveyor in San Diego, California and was involved in Residential projects (subdivisions mostly) all over the county. I was able to see the building process from start to finish and I think that will help me in the future (hopefully). 7 years later and after some world travel to learn new skills I  became involved in making wine in the Willamette Valley (south of Portland, Oregon) after living in Australia, New Zealand, & France. 

I am interested in learning more about wholesaling, fix-and-flips, and buy-and-hold with apartments. I felt like I was gathering some good steam until I was laid off a few weeks ago and now I am faced with either using my extra reserves of money and time for marketing and charging R.E. invesment FT or to play it safe and find a job and somehow create or find a deal in my spare time.

Anyway, this is a brief intro and I look forward to meeting a lot of you in the future! Thanks for reading!

Cheers,

Ian
