My thinking and plan are that if I'm going to do this thing right, I'm going to have to quit my job and supplement it with other sources of income so that I can devote more time to getting involved with REI.

If you work a job make this your '2nd' job and treat it as such.Don't AgreeYou can't "see" what time you have available and devote that to wholesaling.

With the lack of information on the BP forums, I am devoting one day a week to providing more information on these type of investments to the BP Community.While warehouse and industrial-style buildings can be made up of many different types of materials, including block and bar joist, structural steel, tilt-wall concrete and wood, the make-up I am going to be specifically discussing is pre-engineered metal buildings.

Last year was the first full time year devoted to it so last year we only made a very slight profit on my returns.

It's a seasonal business, so over the winter I took the course, I passed the course on April 1st right before I had to devote some time to getting my seasonal business up and running for the new season.

Become valuable to other people by devoting your time and service for free... it's going to get you a lot further when it comes to experience, knowledge, and deal opportunities!

I'm not quite there yet, but I've taken care of the first part and I'm working on the second.I understand your point of view.however, I disagree on the laziness part.life is not just about making money , I would like to devote more of my time to my church, serve homeless, go on multiple missions to other countries.the question is, I am trying to figure out is the inflation part.

that's way behind what market rate is, and it's left me with largely pretty devoted tenants. 

@Curtis BedfordI would put your time and devotion into 1) Finding the area you want to invest in(narrow it down by zip code or neighborhood)2) Connect with agents / realtors3) Connect with experience investors in the area to provide you tips on the area4) Property management company / contractorAfter the above are done, then I would focus on the back-end professionals such as accountants, attorneys, LLC's, etcBest of luck
