@Justin Windham thank you for the message!

@Julio Gonzalez pleasure is all mine! Thank you for the luck.

Hey Justin! Thank you for the reply and honest feedback. Making me out to sound like an egotistical, self centered taker haha!  As you are a reputable member of the group and clearly successful in R.E, I value your feedback and response 100%, thank you! Maybe you are correct in the fact that I will not see any helpful feedback, I would understand entirely. You will see me in other threads as I am here to stay and best serve the community as I possibly can now and when I do have the experience. One post upon entering the group under the "Starting Out" section cannot define ones character, helpfulness, or ability to inspire others I must say. Thanks again and I will see you around! 

Hey Team!

Thank you for checking out my post, I appreciate you as I am looking for guidance. 29 years old and AMBITIOUS in San Diego,CA! 

For the last three years, I have been swallowed into the mortgage industry. Real Estate was my initial plan, but life has it's way. Regardless, I am very fortunate and grateful with the opportunities thus far. Being a proven top producer, I have been promoted to a Sales Manager early this year. Recently I have passed my DRE exam along with purchasing my first property in San Diego (currently rented, going to rehab with goal of Airbnb).

Long story short, I am considering leaving my good  "9-5 office job" going 1099 with another mortgage company getting back to closing loans gaining capital. This will also allow me to get TIME being 1099 which I do not have right now. My thoughts are that this structure will allow me to expand on my real estate endeavors with education and experience hanging each license. I do not have any desire to be an employee at this stage of my life and eventually not have to chase mortgage loans but be full integrated in Real Estate. 

Any advise on where my head is at how this transition may look with an expedited process is greatly appreciated!! I have been doing a lot of my own research of course but would love input. 

Books? MUST READS? 

Pay for an online coach ? - Springbaord Training? Any recommendations?

Seek a Real Estate Team or strive to locate one mentor at the Brokerage?

END GOAL: To own several cash flowing properties/NOT trading my time for money.

Thank you again, a lot riding on my visions and decisions!
