New to Bigger Pockets and living in Portland, Oregon
Hello Everyone,
My name is Spencer and I am new to this forum, and real estate in general. I am an entrepreneur looking for advice.
I am currently financing deals for luxury and sports cars. I have been successful in sales and am looking to find out more about real estate.
I am interested in all aspects of real estate. My end goal is to invest in multi-family apartments to allow me to achieve financial freedom. I was considering getting my real estate license and selling houses to also learn the business and get contacts for later investing while providing an opportunity for additional cash flow.
What are your thoughts?

@Spencer Morey thats not a bad approach. To be clear is your end goal to invest passively in multi family apartments OR be a lead sponsor/operator/ more of an active investor in the deal thats included in the general partnership. If your end goal is to be more passive then yes finding ways to accumulate capital to invest passively is the way you should go. But if you want to be more of an active guy in that arena, well then I'd say start working on your education right now and networking as well, and when you feel ready to take action you can move forward in becoming an operator/sponsor of deals. I hope this helps feel free to reach out if you have any other questions.
