It would be a great opportunity to extend out to some real estate professionals.

I was living abroad buying/selling real estate mostly land, and some land with structures.

Welcome to BP - what strategy are you looking to pursue for your first real estate investment?

I'm reaching deep into my psychic thoughts… I see it… A majority of people who respond to this post will be real estate brokers… I can see it!

Hi BP, I am looking to invest the OKC market long term hold real estate. 

Best of luck on your real estate future, it's been a fun adventure for me!

Even still, it could be said that I've still lost money due to my time on the tools instead of prospecting as a real estate agent (the cost of lost opportunity).If you can truly do 80%-90% of the work yourself (at acceptable quality levels) and you aren't sacrificing your time where you can get better returns for your efforts, then yes, it can work even up here in Canada.

I have been devouring books by Brandon Turner to get a better grasp on a macro view of the theories of real estate investing .

Get to real estate meetups and network with people out there doing deals.
