@Scott Trench

Thanks for the input guys. I don't exactly have the capital for the Denver market, but I read @scotttrench book so I see the path to it. I was wondering if there is any first hand experience I could gain. Obviously mentors are a good route, but is there a type of job that is very insightful for this career. Maybe a job that doesn't involve a lot of capital but gets me in the game a bit. I'm very hands on so that's why I ask. Once again thanks.

Hello everyone,

My Name is Jordan Walbecq and I am new to BP community.  Have been listening to the podcast for a few months and thought I should be more actionable about my real estate goals.  I moved to Denver in August of 2016 for graduate school.  Prior to moving to Denver, I had many ambitions of house flipping in my hometown of Detroit, but realized the housing market was much more expensive in Denver.  Plus my income has been significantly cut by being only a part time employee and taking graduate courses. Though I do not have the best financial set up to invest, I have caught the real estate bug once again and want get my foot the door any way I can.

I know that being frugal, and saving pennies is the first step, but I want to be more hands on than that.  That's why I came here to ask what exactly  I can do to get more experience in the real estate realm.  Reading books and listening to podcast are fine but I want to take action and immerse myself within the business.  Let me know what you guys think.
