Hello all, Has anyone either used or heard about a company called HouseCashin or Real Estate Bees?

I would like to start investing in real estate once I get situated down there.

I've read many of the BiggerPockets books like - House Hacking- Flipping- Estimating Rehabs- Multifamily Millionaire Book I and II- How to Invest in Real Estate with Low or No Money Down- Investing from a Distanceand even some outside of themand have been wanting to do something in Real Estate for awhile.
