@Cole Simpson I'd love to reach out to some investors. Problem is, I don't know of any. I'm going to try to attend some meetups in charlotte. My work schedule limits what I can do during the week which seems to be when most of these meetups are held.

Looking to network with contractors who do work in the Anson/Union County area. Need people who do good work and have decent knowledge on buy and holds as well as fix and flips!

When starting out, I understand it's important to have a good team of professionals (such as CPA's and investor friendly agents) to help make your start a little bit easier. What are some other things I need to have on my team, especially with me being new to real estate as a whole, that would help me to avoid making newbie mistakes and aid in my learning throughout this process?

I am trying to get my start in real estate investing and am wondering if obtaining my license and becoming a part time agent would help me learn more about it as well as maybe put a little extra cash in my pocket to get started with. Since it doesn't really cost a lot of time or moeny to get a license, I'm thinking that it may not be a bad Idea. Does anybody have any thoughts or experience with being a part time real estate agent? Could it help me to better understand the system and how it works?  

Thanks for the insight! I won’t be leaving my job anytime soon. Probably will still be here in the next five years.   Leaving the job is just one of my primary goals, but having extra cash flow per month could knock out some of the over time I’ve been working

I am trying to learn and get into small multi family/single family real estate investing. My primary goal is to generate enough cash flow to be able to leave my current job and do real estate full time. The area that I live in is more of a long term appreciation style of investing since the price of houses vs the rent you can receive isn't that great. My question is, are their any markets in North Carolina that are better with producing cash flow?

I am new to the idea of real estate investing and looking for different events/connections that can help me learn and grow in this field. I am located about 45 minutes east of Charlotte, NC. If anybody knows of any events or maybe even mentors that might could help me along the way, I'd really appreciate a response. Thanks!

That’s one option I have thought about trying use. I’m trying to gain of different options so that I have multiple ways of doing things and aren’t stuck with just one route. Thanks for the reply!
