Pharmacist by day, Real Estate Investor by night?
Hey BP Community! I am a full-time pharmacist and part-time real estate agent who works primarily with investor clients here in Cleveland, Ohio. I'm looking to connect with other pharmacists who are investing in real estate as a side hustle. Right now, I'm building a REI blog specifically for pharmacists and want to share your story! Please let me know if you are interested!

Good things can happen from this, but I must give you one piece of advice that you cannot take for a grain of salt.
There are no groups of people that are more notorious for shooting themselves in the foot when it comes to real estate than:
A. a group of lawyers
B. a group of doctors/medical staff
C. a group of teachers/professors
For some reason, despite their high IQs and whatnot, they get into horrible deals time and time again, and their real estate careers typically last 1 or 2 deals max.
This doesn't have to happen as long as you're ultra consercative in all estimations and calculations when landing your first deal.
