A little over 15 years ago, in the late spring of 2009, I was a brand spanking new real estate agent coming off of a miserably failed real estate investment venture.

Many of us have been there but you may not be cut out for real estate.

One of the other factors that kept me from pulling the trigger is that the city has never passed any real STR regulation.

This is a good baseline though of real costs that will get a project done. 

I am an investor and real estate agent in Gulf Shores / Orange Beach and would be glad to help in anyway that I can. 

Hey @Aaron Price, I think the best way you can get started in real estate is to reach out to local investor-friendly agents in your market.

My son is working on his first SubTo real estate deal in Crawfordville, Florida, and I'm hoping to find someone in this community who can offer him some guidance and support.He's eager to learn and navigate this process successfully, but could really benefit from the expertise of someone with experience in SubTo transactions.

Utilizing the preREO strategy, a receiver (i.e. a local real estate agent or property manager who you may already have a relationship with) could be appointed to make repairs and rent out the home during the foreclosure process.

One thing to understand about real estate as an asset class is that it is a depleting asset, meaning there is only so much of it (think oil).
