I started house hacking at 22 and this is what I've learned, my mistakes, and what I regret: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/922/topics/1133476-hous...

One of the most important skills you didn't mention is networking, which you are obviously doing well at too.I'd recommend connecting 1:1 (zoom, coffee. lunch, etc.) with a couple from the BP Chicago community or better yet check out some of the local meetups: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-real-estate-events-...Make friends with the meetup hosts...they will often know whos who and can help you make the right connections.Regarding your license, I think it's a great idea if you have the time and are going at it with the right intentions. 

This is literally one of the main reasons this forum was created.

I’ve heard investors on this forum describe investing in notes (directly) as a passive investment.  

Hi Amy, It's always nice to see a neighbor posting on the forums.

@Mic Salvador welcome to the forums Mic.

We are seeing that with investors in Norada, David Zook ATM investments and others are posting on forums like BP and reddit and creating private groups to try and stir the pot and get actions taken.

Hey Kareem -A solid first step is educating yourself through podcasts, books, and forums like BP.

This is my 1st post and I am so incredibly thankful that a forum like this exists and for any information to help guide me through this tough decision is so immensely appreciated! 

To everyone on the wholesaling forums, understand this:Focus on learning from those with real experience and a proven track record of success.Don’t waste your energy on negativity.
