Hello,

I am a new agent in Scottsdale, AZ & an aspiring real estate investor. I want to succeed in this industry & kill it my first year. Would love any helpful advice or tips. I need to build a solid network of trusted individuals and if you are in the area I would love to chat. 

@Jake Kain primary goal is to be an investor! While I'm saving money for a downpayment and finding the right property (it's crazy right now) I think it would be beneficial to get with an agency and do RE as well. 

Hello there! So I just passed both my real estate exams and I'm so excited. I live in Scottsdale, AZ, and was wondering which agency to go with for the best training possible. Ideally, I would love to find a mentor- someone to take me under their wing and teach me everything they know! Any advice? I'm 25. Ultimately I want to buy and sell properties and thought by getting my RE license and getting out there first, would help a great deal. 

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm studying for my sales prelicensing exam and I'm confused about the difference between a carryback and a contract for deed? The definitions are almost identical in my eyes. 

Any helpful ways to remember the difference for the test would be great!

@Paul Welden Thank you! Yes that was the plan. I'd love access to all the goodies. I will keep all  of that in mind.

@David Avery Thank you so much! Definitely could do less spending and great to know, I'm happy I have you as a contact.

Hi @Account Closed ,thank you for your advice! I would love to chat with you to know more about what you did. 

I've been listening to the BiggerPockets podcasts and I must say, I'm addicted. I  currently live in a condo in Scottsdale, AZ my parents own that are letting me rent it out from them. I've been looking for my first property/condo to purchase myself, in Scottsdale or Arcadia. I've noticed the prices are increasing rapidly and 1bds/1ba are now in the 200s and 2bd/2ba are in the 300s! I have about 15k saved up and was curious if a 1bd/1ba all renovated is a bad investment? And if 300 range is a huge price for my first condo if I chose to go with a 2 bd/2ba. 

Also, just finished real estate schooling just to be more educated in the process and haven't taken the test yet. Should I wait to finish to buy? Not looking to be a real estate agent, just want to get into rental properties & make the big $$$.
