I would imagine it can be both extremely rewarding and at times extremely frustrating (isn't all real estate?).

"High risk does not mean high reward.

Podcasts, webinars, seminars and meet-ups are great for education and inspiration but your 1st deal needs to be simple and rewarding - a home you own.

I'm telling you, that one change added 5-10% to the property because it pops now and has tons of charm. 

The police said I would need to evict.These are the types of things that keep or force people out of the business, meaning there is more reward for those of us who stay.

While the work is rewarding, it is not increasing my own portfolio.I’m 58 years old, have terrible credit and besides my consulting business, am not employed.

Practicing Pharmacy can be rewarding in its own way but i need more freedom and i see this avenue as the ticket.

Another possible strategy that lowers the risk but also lowers the rewards is to keep your existing property and rent a house in Milpitas.

Overall, if real estate is your thing - either because you've got experience or want to get experience - leveraging your IRA for real estate investment of any type (tax liens, notes, private lending, etc) - can be very rewarding.

I’m looking for risk and reward, but I’m looking for smart risk.
