There is a group specifically for women in real estate as well.They do offer discounts though out the year on the sign up fee (or at least they did when I signed up), so you may inquire or keep your eyes open for those. 

Without knowing the specifics of the property, it is impossible to know if those estimates you pulled are anywhere close to accurate. 

I will be focusing on specifically Philadelphia, since i currently work/live in Manhattan, Philadelphia has favorable prices and it's relatively close to New York.

Can someone help with the specifics of Real Estate Investing for a Licensed Real Estate Broker?

I have worked on a lot of projects in my time but never one specifically like this so I am thankful for any advice.  

I read Poor Dad Rich Dad, and of course like many others I felt that Robert was talking about my specific situation.

However i am ope to be taught any strategy that will help me develop my investing to be my vehicle to time and money freedom! 

In particular, I'm curious about what to look for as a first-time home buyer with an eye on investing (specifically if you live in California) and out-of-state investing advice including how to research and what to look for when prospecting a state/county/neighborhood you know nothing about?   

If you have a specific question you are welcome to send me a message or post it.

Thanks for any suggestions, or for any other strategies/vehicles y'all recommend!
