There are many aspects to real estate investing, which aspects interest you? 

I like the out of the box type thinking, but I am not sure I would use it and how many people would versus the risk and maintenance aspect.

They never invest in oakland for example due to those location has highest crime rate in bay area.so expecting all market to work in parallels was bit inaccurate... my forecast never inaccurate since 2009 when I examine this aspect in more detail.

Hey Tadiwa, happy to help on the cash flow & lending aspect!
