I am self employed in the construction industry and looking to expand into real estate development.  

Lots of BPers attend as well as industry pros in Baltimore and it's FREE with no sales pitches!

I hate to say it but I have run into a lot of people in the real estate industry who will bold face lie to your face no problem. 

I just have met some really wonderful people in this industry and hearing their stories both good and bad make me anxious to really get going.Thank you in advance!!!!

Why did I decide to jump into this industry?

I am a mechanical engineer with a background in high-end automotive industry flipping cars which to be honest is a lot like real estate just a little more aggressive and dealing with people is different. 

,,show your good in both areas (anyone that has a history of accomplishment will find investors much faster than someone that has a history of failures,,,but most of us have had some failure along the way,,but show you area a leader

Having a goal of leaving money on the table seems pretty shallow, but to be really successful in life, just lower your expectations.Learn to buy what you want and where your primary profit center is advanced, but learn the industry to be flexible and able to profit in any opportunity

Too many of my "real-life" conversations are with people who are lock stock and barrel bought into the industrial corporate model that broke down in the 1980's.

Although I enjoyed doing so, it still wasn't as fulfilling as I would like for it to have been so I stepped away from the industry for several years.
