Success in this field doesn’t happen overnight—it requires years of strategic investing, continuous education, and persistence.The key is to focus on growing markets, quality neighborhoods, and building a strong support team.

The courses I took during that period in real estate were some of the best and most informative courses I took during my entire college career.

Of course it isn't going to work for everyone...then again, I also have many friends with degree's that cost them 6 digits that cannot get a job in their field!

It’s invaluable to hear from someone with your depth of experience in the field!

Learn to spot these and it'll help you immensely in your real estate career.

Given your previous career, your goals, and wanting to diversify your investments, I'm wondering if you might find value in the PassivePockets community, it's a community with private forum dedicated to passive investing in syndications.

My name is Jaedon Carlisle.I am a new investor looking for 4-plexes and small commerical units.I currently reside in Redding as well and I would be very interested in meetups or any existing groups.As mentioned above, I have noticed very little inventory and the inventory that exists seems to be very expesnive relative to what I believe constitutes a good deal (at least in my inexperienced view).I am 26 and looking to make this my career.

BTW there is a free trial and the Starter monthly plan is $119.It also allows you to search through consumer information such as property owner "credit worthiness," Credit card usage, buying power, age, language, family members in the house, and many other fields that are above and beyond property characteristics, which is unique.

There could be some real interesting back and fourth discussions to be had on the pro's and con's and risk's of these sub $200k houses in the Midwest, but I've been through thousands of tenants at thousands of these 100 year old properties in my career, and I've never been sued for a sidewalk slip and fall.

Unfortunately, I learned the hard way that it wasn’t the best investment (actually the worst I've done in my short investing career).
