This spring I upgraded to the Pro account and began dedicating time to learning through the site and podcasts.

I recently got stung with a vacation rental as I accepted paypal for the payment.I had a vacation rental which I advertised on various online platforms, including the vacation rental section of craigslist.

The money and the credit don't necessarily need to come from you but you need to have the time to dedicate to getting started and the primary thing you need to focus on in the beginning is obtaining all of the Knowledge you can.Pick your REI niche, retail flips, turn key rentals, etc., and then get as much knowledge on that strategy as possible, by whatever means necessary and possible. 

Devotion, and dedication to your project giving your project priority. .

Also, thanks to Josh and Brandon for working so hard to provide us such a great platform.

Congrats @Mike WallaceGlad your hard work and dedication is paying off in a major way!

So here's the deal, I have been interested in flipping real estate and possibly owning rental property as a business for some time now but have never dedicated the time to learning where to start or had the funds to do so.

The RealtyShares Investment Platform,allows accredited investors access to a variety of real estate asset classes, including: Residential, Commercial, Retail and Mixed-Use.
