Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Acoustics, & Real Estate

[Jonathan Tuan Tran]

Hi BiggerPockets, I'm an EE or ECE (Electrical Engineer or Electrical Computer Engineer) with a background in computers and electronics, as well as some software such as C++, Python, MATLAB.

I've dabbled with software such AutoCAD for drafting in 2D, not in 3D yet, though.

Subscribed to IEEE Magazine, Electrical Contractor Magazine, for both electronics and contracting know how.

How to best get my career in real estate started to make passive income? I live between San Jose and Fremont, California.

Great place to live -- not so much when there is little to no leverage to purchase my own home, burn rate goes very quickly, or perhaps I don't know enough.

I follow Brandon Turner, BiggerPockets, Grant Cardone and have attended both his Real Estate and Sales & Marketing talks.

I would like to get into real estate to one day either purchase or build my own Home Recording Studio. I'd also like to work as a contractor to work with electricians and electrical contractors as that would be relevant to my skill set in the engineering aspect.
