Send me a colleague request to discuss.

Write it up as a personal letter.When you do all that, then contact a local RE Agent to give you a list of all the houses in that neighborhood that have sold in the last 5 years with all cash.

Hey Everyone,I am trying to figure out what the best use of my money is, whether investing in RE or applying to student loans and needed some help with my thought process.

Got my RE agent licence in 2010 and quickly realized that I much preferred property/deal analysis to marketing myself and sales.

Hi Douglas,Sorry for the job loss I understand from that experience.Great that you are venturing into RE. 

Feet on the ground, even just once, can make a world of difference in RE since many markets are very different block to block. 

BP family,I'm looking to add value to some local RE Investors. 

We've actually been discussing getting a local networking group together of folks with complimentary strengths (wholesalers, contractors, agents, investors, property managers, etc.).

My family has been involved in REI since I can remember and I've spent countless weekends fixing rental properties and doing some DIY rehab.I'm currently in the research phase of my real estate career and although my family's experience in RE lays heavily in single family homes, I am more drawn to multi-family and flipping.  

Make sure to find your local REI meet-ups and attend as they are invaluable to establishing your local RE base.Good luck and contact me if there is anything I can do to help as an investor or architect!
