Beginners in St. Augustine, FL

Hi, I'm actually an inactive realtor in St. Augustine, FL.  I am interested in learning how to invest in real estate to build a retirement income. My husband is a building contractor locally and plans on becoming involved in real estate also. We have several investments already but not enough to sustain retirement. My husband is looking at changing professions or at least doing both, so that as he ages we can work together in real estate. We plan on him becoming licensed as a broker eventually, too.  He has worked really hard physically for a lot of years, we are hoping this will be the transition he deserves. Any help or advice is very appreciated. We will be taking the webinar, and reading as much as we can in the evenings. Looking forward to becoming knowledgeable of how the numbers for in investing in RE work:)

@Renee P.  Maybe come by the local REIF meeting at Jaybirds Restaurant here in St Augustine.  There is actually a meeting at 8:30am this coming Thursday(Oct 6).  There are always people looking to network and looking for contractors.  Hope you and your husband can both make it.

I wholetail properties here in NE Florida and am also a licensed realtor...I work for investors to help find homes on the MLS but also off-market. If you need CMAs or want to target some particular houses on the MLS, I can get an automatic subscription setup that can email you as soon as anything new comes on the market. Best of luck!
