Also is using a HELOC considered creative financing (I keep reading about creative financing, just unsure if HELOCS fall In that category)Lastly I am looking to connect with another buy and hold investor who would be willing to look at my current situation and give ideas on what should be my next move and or what I need to educate myself more on.

Hello Bigger Pockets friends,I have been reading books about real estate investing and reading blog posts on Bigger Pockets trying to get educated.

I am very interested in furthering my education in real estate and am wondering, besides the Bigger Pockets Podcasts and forums would you recommend Real Estate Bootcamps that charge a fee to attend? 

Over the past couple of months, I have been educating myself on real estate investing and my goal for 2019 is to purchase my first property.

Just go through some of the ideas shared , spend a day crunching numbers , educating yourself and seeing if you can make it all work!

The investor I work for no longer wants to become an employing broker so I can hang it with him due to fees, required continuing education and the fact we simply can operate without.

I really just wanted to get into the community and begin connecting with others around the area to further my education into real estate.

Do you have college education fund for your kids funded as well?
