Hello. My name is Marie Roberts. I work full time right now in the rat race. I read Rich Dad Poor Dad and felt motivated. Most jobs these days keep cutting the work force increasing responsibilities with little salary increase and less benefits. I need no more motivation. I got frustrated with real estate agents that didn't respond quick enough etc. so I got my License. I really only planned on selling something to myself but I may consider using my License as a regular agent sometime soon. I am also a Mom which takes up a good bit of time but the plan is to make at least my salary in real estate and have a life with more options. I should have a 3 family closed on soon but I don't want to stop there. I am open to anything. I figure I will take whatever is a good deal: flip, a wholesale, a buy and hold. My next immediate step is to find good contractors etc. It is time!
