From being a Spanish teacher to a full time RE Investor

Thanks BP for helping me in becoming a full time RE investor. I want to say thanks to brandon for doing the webinars in which I continue learning a ton and also to josh for the great podcast you guys put together every week. Not only I've learned lots of different strategies from the podcasts, but they also give you boosts of energy to continue pursuing your goals. I started doing real estate as hobby back in 2007 and as a business in 2015. It was in January 2015 when I decided to have 27 units in my rental portfolio with a cashflow of at least $200 each so I can replace my teaching income with rental income. Well, I hit that target in march of 2017 doing lots of private funding and BRRRRs, some fix/flip, and some wholesale deals. So from March until the end of the school year I was and continue to be very busy with two full time jobs. My teaching and property management/fix and flip/wholesale business kept me awake during long nights and early mornings. Well, something had and continues getting sacrifice in order to achieve our goals. Thanks BP and all the members of this fantastic resource that helps people achieve their dreams. Manny
