I want to look into this and figure out other ways to help kickstart my RE investments.

I'd like to get involved in the real estate investing industry and have been reading, listening to podcasts, and educating myself.Right now I am trying to find a full time job in a position that will give me some experience I can use to help kick start my own real estate investments (interested in rehabbing).

I think it is smart to have taken the licensing classes, it's a good kickstart into the world of REI.

I have liquidity from the previous business to invest and hopefully kick start this endeavor.Biggest challenge - I don't know this industry, I am coming from a completely opposite industry in the technology field.What I have, I think, in my favor, are colleagues from the RE industry with experience in both traditional RE sales (agent/buy/sell) but also experience in the REI side (one owning about 70+ properties and the other owning about 25 properties, both using their properties for passive cashflow)With an engineering/analytical background, my greatest fear right now is the unknown and I am trying to shore up that experience through reading and listening to others, but as I have already discovered, its like taking a drink from the fire hose - way more knowledge than I can consume in a short period of time.Questions I would pose to anyone interesting in providing some feedback -- Best way to look for that first opportunity?
