You should post more - you're a good writer with some good experiences to transfer...

Writers write, actors act and dealmakers must do deals, or they perish.

I work full time as a Senior Technical Writer and trainer at O'Neil & Associates.I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to real estate, but a quick learner.  

After all, @Brandon Turner and @Joshua Dorkin think highly of Rich Dad Poor Dad's Guru writer, Robert Kiyosaki.  

My biggest challenge is going to be balancing this with life as a dad/sales rep/writer ect..

Right now I'm just ready to learn whatever I can so that I'm prepared when my opportunity comes.I tend to be more of a reader/solo learner, but think that down the road I may want to find someone willing to trade their knowledge for a good writer, willing laborer, or general volunteer. 

Brandon Turner is a gifted real estate writer and explains estimating Cap Ex better than I could here (on How to Estimate Future CapEx Expenses on a Rental Property): https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2015/10/1...

I'm a writer and part-time Real Estate investor who is currently living in Brooklyn, New York.  

Fast forward to my current obsession with the BP podcasts and my ever growing obsession with reading (I consider myself a writer more than anything), and I'm reading to jump into real estate.
