After spending 25 years as a Software Engineering and Product leader, I’m now exploring the world of real estate investing (REI) and looking forward to learning from all of you.My goal is to leverage my current investments and savings to build a real estate portfolio that will eventually allow me to transition away from my current career.

If you spend a few minutes researching Jay, I think you'll find someone you want on your side.  

I 100% know that he's going to spend a decent part of the 2 days trying to get me to invest in Cardone Capitol.

@Colin Ford Spend a good amount of time building your team in Florida.

Instead of being transparent about it, you had me spend a bunch of money on things I shouldn't have since there was no intent on closing the deal.

Sometimes people get paid and if they can pay their rent immediately they will but if they can't they may be tempted to spend it elsewhere. 

They usually spend one day going through the property checking everything for a couple of hours and move forward.

Everyone knows who the new person is and the goal is always to mess with them and test them and try to get them to spend their money on the junk so we can get the good ones. 

New York is hard to evict people and you'll end up spending more time and money doing it yourself.

Even if a software is free or cheap, it's the time investment getting things set up and then tweaking it for the first few months that is the real "spend".
