My name is Kyle, I live in Burlington, Vermont and am looking to get into the real estate industry!

That way you will at least keep your head in the game, note future neighborhoods to invest in (or not invest in) for yourself and possibly learn some good valuable information from the investor you could be bird dogging for.

As a new investor though I would say stick to the numbers and learn the game first.

Nobody asks for video games anymore.

The CCIM training is absolutely the best most sophisticated training in the industry.

I am super excited to be back in the game with more knowledge than ever, a thirst to learn and eagerness to meet fellow BP members and investors.PS - I tell everyone I speak to about Bigger Pockets.com - love this place!

It was no longer earning anything... so I figured this would be a great opportunity to continue contributing to my retirement and get in the real estate game.

Over the past 5 years I have seen industry & population growth in Columbus explode, and effectively it has raised our housing prices.I started investing in Columbus OH about 3 years ago, with an FHA loan.

Do you have any creative suggestions on the end game for investors in my buy and hold business?

The name of the game anymore is "degree and".
