From the "paint and carpet" cosmetic rehabs to a house we are finishing up now that was a 200yr old log cabin that required us to catch the top story of the home with industrial steel i-beams and remove the entire bottom half of the house and rebuild it from the footers up.

Finished my first real estate investment class, ready to get out there, looking for a mentor and learn from the best, while becoming a support system in this industry.

I've been working in the pharmaceutical industry in Orlando for the past several years, but have reached a point where I'm ready for a change of pace and I've always been interested in the Real Estate Industry since I was in school.

I am just getting into real estate investing and don't really know anyone in the industry.

More like 5-6% seems like the spot that people underwrite.

Im an active REALTOR in San Diego county and have  been in the industry for over 10 years and would like to expand and learn the investing aspect of Real Estate.

My name is Ryan Drowne and I am new to the real estate investing industry, seeking to gain as much knowledge as possible in order to be successful.

You certainly don't want to miss out on a spot that you and your wife could envision as a forever home.
