@Solomon Ganz I did pretty much the exact thing three years ago. I was in a lucrative finance job in New Hampshire but realized I wasn't getting much further (and was burnt out). I moved to Denver (hot sellers market) to get into real estate. I knew only my sisters in Denver. I will be honest, it is very hard but if you want it bad enough you will get it. The first 6 months I only made 15k. Three years in is where I am reaping my reward - I now run a mostly referral business and my last two deals were people I met 3 years ago! In real estate you are not on your timetable but your buyer/sellers. Two things I would suggest - 1. focus on building a sphere early on. You have a (dis)advantage in a new community and will need to focus on making friends/acquaintances. These will be your deals in 2-3 years. 2. Capitalize on your sphere NY, if you can get a few referrals a year from NY, that will help you with cash flow. I will end up making close to 12k this year in referrals from NH. Feel free to reach out for help/support. I say do it, either way you are going to have to work hard, might as well do it doing something you enjoy.
