Regarding my background in investing, it is somewhat limited. I am 25 and only began investing in real estate 2 years ago (although I have been going to seminars and reading books since the age of 17, it was just taking that first step that took a while).
From an academic point of view, I am a grad of UC Santa Barbara with a major in communication and minor in Entrepreneurial studies. From an experience point of view, I had 2 internships in college (merly lynch and smith barney) and shortly after graduating I joined a company out of the East Coast as a project administrator, and 6 months ago I began my position as the Director of Business Development for Capital Consulting Company. I own multiple investment properties in TX that I rent for small cashflow, and am always learning about new investing techniques.

And what is it that you do now? I have seen many of your posts, so I know you are an active investor, but I would love to hear more about your current endevours.
You also mentioned your age. I am 25 and 8 years younger than any of the other partners at my firm, so I know how age can effect things. How old are you?
Cheers,
AA

Can someone tell me how I can find out how many posts I have? I would like to post on a page that only allows 10+, but I don't know how many I have made.
Thanks!

I agree, google earth is amazing. The only way I have used it is my investing business is by checking out the area of potential properties, before making the actual trip to see them up close and personal. You can learn a lot about an area from the sky.

I assume there are some individuals in this forum that have faced the predicament that I am staring in the eyes...corporate job verse independent investor. If anyone has made the successful transition from one to the other, please share your story and the pros and cons of both.
Thanks!

Thanks for the book info. Does it help with large REO packages, or just individual properties?

Welcome to the forum. I recently joined myself, but from everything I have read you certainly came to the right place. Regarding your real estate goals, I work with REOs so if there is ever anything you need, feel free to contact me. I assume as an individual buyer your orders would be under $5M? Best of luck!

I just wanted to welcome you to the forum as well. I recently joined myself and everything you said in your intro was spot on. There is no better way to succeed than by surrounding yourself with positive, like minded people.
