Hello BiggerPockets Community,My name is Sebastian Tamburro, and I’m a Canadian currently studying at Colgate University.

Quote from @Luca Perinuzzi: I'm studying for my real estate license, and plan to primarily work with investors once I'm licensed.

Study the market.

I’ve been studying real estate for the past few months, reading books and absorbing as much as I can.

John has released books & does case studies regularly.
