I'd say its important, learn and earn. You can start off like I did and get licensed and sell houses, meet other investors, and raise money. However, there are plenty of ways to get started and I'm sure you'll figure out a way to make it work. 

Being an agent is the biggest one I always considered. My main concern is being able to pay for my bills. What did you have supplemental income when you started?

Hey guys,

I just finished the Chad Doty BP podcast and it really got me thinking about choosing a job to bring in more income/build up my knowledge of real estate. 

I am 24 without a degree and have spent the past year reading books on REI/business while working average jobs, but I can't help but think if I had a job more closley alligned to where I want to go, I could have learned more.

My question is: How necessary would you guys say it is to work my day job in the real estate field while working towards being an investor?

@Jeff Zinsmeister @Bob Floss II

@Matt Shields @Kevin Grinstead

Do you guys have any tips on getting in contact with hard money lenders? Specifically questions I should be asking or preference for calling to email

Hey guys, I'm Alex and I'm new to these forums. My brief overview is I've been researching real estate investing for a few months and have believe I have found my starting point. 

I want to start by flipping single family houses using hard money to generate cash for more flips and multifamily rentals, but am unsure the next step I should take.

Should I start calling hard money guys in my area (Denver, Colorado) to see how much I could get, or Find a deal and then call them? 

Thanks in advance,

Alex
