Pharmacist to real estate investor? Hopefully

Jacob Walls

Hello,

My name is Jake and I am new to the forums here. I have been binge listening to podcasts recently and reading as much as I can lately. I am currently a pharmacist in Florida and am looking for a way to supplement some income and slowly get out of my profession to gain more financial freedom and hopefully become my own boss instead of being controlled by the coporate world. I am looking into getting my real estate license so I can further my knowledge on the processes. I look forward to reading the fourms on how other people got started and investing in their first deals.

Cheers,

Jake Walls

Jacob, Tanh... I'm in the same situation.  I'm also a pharmacist and am tired of trading time for money.  I recently moved back to Ohio after living in San Diego for the past 10 years.  I've been doing my best to educate myself about real estate through books and podcasts, and am ready to start investing in the Columbus area.  Single family homes are the logical place to start but I hope to eventually move into multifamily and achieve financial freedom.  Good luck both of you!
