I have been pursuing LEED certification for my professional career and have been considering adding the LEED for Homes certification as well, but have been wondering if it would be worth it.

Early on in my “career” I would accept rent weeks late and not charge a fee.

Maybe it's me recently turning 34 talking, but my inability to get my real estate investing career off the ground is really starting to get to me. 

So, when I finally decided to quit my career and start my own real estate investment company, I had all of these...mechanisms and methodologies...engrained in my head as the right way to approach any problem - PARTICULARLY, the right way to run a company (and I still believe this is true).So, through my real estate journey, I have noticed that most (not all) real estate investors don't really like to, nor see the need to, approach investing from a bigger picture.

Hi Charles,A lot of us are just getting started in our flipping careers on BP.  

Congratulations on the career change.

I just moved to north Houston and I am wanting to begin my real estate career in the near future.  

I've read a lot of about how it's a good idea to pay off your current debt before moving forward with your investing career.

I was looking for the upcoming meetings and saw all the current events posted had already passed.

I hope that you experienced folks at Bigger Pockets can help me to avoid the major pitfalls and ease into this new career without making costly errors!
