While I was in Pittsburgh playing football, I got my real estate license and started selling houses.

OngI think you are off to a great start. 

This means you can buy now at next year´s price and start profiting.There are also amazing foreclosure deals.

I started with multifamily and was able to purchase several properties, and juggle a business and the deals simultaneously.

This obviously isn't my only marketing channel, but it is one of them to go allow with cold calling and texting.I appreciate anyones advise.From what I have noticed with these type of lead services, they start to have lower quality leads the longer they are around. 

I have found that I can apply for business credit cards, which enable me to do renovations or pay for utilities over a period of time, while I save up for down payments or what have you.

BiggerPockets is full of resources designed to help you along your journey, whether you are just getting started or a seasoned investor.

I am starting to believe that I need to learn the tax laws myself since I have lost so much money paying unnecessary taxes because my previous CPA's are not familiar with all laws or they just plug numbers into a software (without strategizing) and then I get hit with huge tax bills that could have been legally avoided. 

I spent my entire life savings founding the company juxtaposed designing affordable housing.
