Since I have been playing for a while and the industry is getting smaller due to regulations which reduces the traffic and the number of recreational players (which makes the game less profitable) I think is the moment to start transitioning to Real Estate.I am literally devorating everything in BP, just bought the 2 books of Brandon Turner (hey Brundon if you read this just let you know that I love the way you explain and the methods of teaching you follow, I really find them effective for newbies like me) so I will be trying to educate myself in RE as much as I can in order to be succesful in the future.If there is someone out there who is also starting in RE, in spanish market and want to connect me to talk about whatever or just for future networking, dont hesitate to do it!

I am a newbie to the real estate investment scene.While still in the education stage trying to figure out a niche, I would love to hear from any wholesalers or flippers in the area.
