Thanks Brandy. 5 children, way to go! What are their ages and boys or girls? My kids are always anxious to meet new friends their age. I'll DM you to get a chance to meet you and your husband. I'm interested to know his ideas on getting the classes done. I like the Winn School of Real Estate, its close by and have night classes. 5:30p-8:30p mon-fri for ~2 months. The challenge I'm trying to overcome is when I must travel for my regular job. Usually 1 week at a time, and likely 2 weeks a quarter.... I could end up missing a week of class and have to make that up. Another challenge is needing to goto Scottsdale 1-2 times a week. Going to make for some really long days (wake at 4:30a, drive to Scottsdale, 7a-3p work, drive to Prescott, 5:30p-8:30p class - I'll be home just in time to tuck my kiddos into bed)..... but heck, its only 2 months, if I want it bad enough, I'll make it happen. Maybe I'll put the real estate license idea on hold, b/c, as you said, its not required to get into real estate investing.
