I guess the main thing I want to do right now to start my investment career is to learn about all the ways people are getting good deals either using auction.com, wholesaling or even spotting a good deal on MLS.  

If you are early in your career (or business), not paying a lot in taxes, it generally makes sense to contribute after tax dollars. 

I'd recommend the flipping route so you can secure more cash to use as you see fit as you grow your investing career!

It sounds like you bought a property that definitely isn't up to code, and not suitable for renters (dirt floor?). 

Those numbers are not set in stone and change every year, but over a 10+ year career, they probably are not far off the mark.

Hi Everyone Was thinking about signing up for Phil Pustejovsky Freedom mentoring program.It sounds extremely convincing especially being a person who is very eager to start a real estate career.

@Bryan Pham I’m looking to own a handful of properties (single family rentals) by the time my current career is over and I head into the next chapter of my life.

My first moves would be listen to all the Podcast, understand the Real Estate terminology, read books, develop a good mindset, follow blogs and when you get here, attend as much Real Estate meet ups as you can to find a suitable mentor. 

I will be testing for my real estate license this month and cannot wait to get started in my career. 

Do you see making all or most of your money out of real estate, or do you plan to launch into a different career and use that income to purchase real estate and build wealth?
