I am looking for Real Estate investor groups that i could hang out with, and participate in all the activities that go on.

I am getting discouraged with the lack of interest in the house so it makes it tough to make the decision to hang on to It longer or to make the argument to my siblings.

You hang with me, teach me, answer my questions, and you'll have a devoted partner for life.

During these times one option maybe to hang out with your kids and wife.Work on being more efficient at investing and the benefits of using virtual assistants.  

There are two exceptions - (1) people who out of sheer luck purchase property just before a large run-up in prices because of either inflation or the luck of being in the right place at the right time and hanging on to the property, can obtain a large degree of wealth without great knowledge or education in real estate and (2) those wanting to fix and flip single family homes can develop a nice business without the heavy education and experience I noted above.  

Or does this become a hassle, as a lot of the students could disappear for the summer, and leave you hanging?

You shouldn't have a problem hanging your license somewhere, probably for a small monthly fee.  

I had someone a while back that kept having insurance companies basically hang up on him when he said the intent was student housing.

When I am not busy with real estate, I enjoy competitive figure skating and hanging out with my two huskies who are rescues. 

Hi everyone,I am a new investor and am currently in the stage of educating myself as much as possible through reading real estate books, listening to the bigger pockets podcast, and hanging out on the Bigger Pockets site.
