It’s always fascinating to meet investors, learn about their careers, and hear how they got into real estate.Do you focus solely on STRs?

I am looking to join a mentorship program to help lower my learning curve and until I find it, I am educating myself with books, as well as YouTube University and great advice from the BiggerPockets community.I do work full-time in a career that I love and is very rewarding, but I also know I won't attain my goals with my current job.

I decided to add to that change by leaving my career to focusing on Real Estate.

@Paul Lucenti  "I don’t believe there can be a bad asset - if something is lining your pocket and you are establishing equity, that really cannot be bad.

im new to BP and BP Pro but excited to start my REI career.

My oldest graduated from BSU (engineering) and has a stellar career, and my youngest went grade 7 - 12 here in Idaho so he got the full experience of what it's like to grow up in this great state. 

I researched commercial construction careers, and found a construction degree is typically required.

Not a bad return from appreciation alone. 

We don’t know any PMCs to recommend in the Cape Coral/fort Meyers area, but since selecting the wrong PMC is usually more harmful than selecting a bad tenant, you might want to read our series about “How to Screen a PMC Better than a Tenant”:https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/3094/91877-how-to-screen-a-pmc-better-than-a-tenant-part-1-services-and-processesWe recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

Dear Geri, Very, very sorry to hear about this investment gone bad.
