I've been talking with an associate broker at Coldwell Banker Schmidt, who is helping me on the real estate path, and he said once I get my license that I could shadow him to get started.

I’m interested in connecting to network, shadow, help on a flip to learn more.

The BEST teacher is to find someone who is doing what you want to do, and shadow them.

I am using a dark color that will hopefully last longer Accent stripe in a master bathroom in 32208?

I asked the inspector if I could shadow him as he inspected the property.  

Painted the lower level extremely dark.

This property would be a total shot in the dark but has huge potential to be a great flip and also a decent cash flow property.

I’d definitely be interested in shadowing and/assisting people for more experience.

And keep in mind the weather here in the Willamette valley can be daunting for the very long wet dark cold winters.. 

My question in this post is NOT whether or not one will happen, but rather about what those of us who began our REI journey AFTER the crash can learn from those who experienced it firsthand.So my question is directed to those in the BP community who were involved in real estate during the dark days of 2007-2009.
