I'm currently learning coding on my own so I can have a skill where I can relocate and still earn income while learning and becoming a real estate investor part-time like many of the BP podcast interview I've come across. 

Paper returns are ALWAYS better than in your jeans, there is a whole other skill set required to understand management, maintenance etc.

Through this site I hope to learn if my skill-sets are suited for this line of work, and if RE investing is compatible with my desired lifestyle.  

I know my market and feel that I have skills needed to take a stab at this on a larger scale.

I find it may be some ego trip that is half-truth, but it might help some folks.I could care less if they have bad writing skills.

I had a hardwood flooring business and my family has done hardwood for years absolutely don't use pine in your rental it's an extremely soft wood and will not last at all.

I will start with that & develop some skills along the way ha!

It was a great lesson in vetting tenants going in and also DIY skills.

Do you have skills and/or upload pages yourself?

So because its such a shotgun approach in certain markets.. ( Portland being one) your response rate will be very low) so they are shocked to even get a call.the next thing is these folks listen to what's written here but they have no phone or sales skills.. they may be young and think it cool to use old technology.. but their target market is not young and not tech driven.. they simply don't understand what they need to do.Their are definite sales skills that are needed to cold call people and then turn them and close them.. think of Stock brokers etc. its called a one call close.. your one call to get an appointment .
