One reason is because I am in the medical sales field and the older I get the more difficult it is to get hired if God forbid I were to lose my job (I am 34 now).

I have been working for the past 3 years in the mortgage field service industry performing residential and commercial property inspections for banks and insurance companies an independent contractor.

My name is Derrick Fisher, I have 19 years experience in the IT field. 

Hi, I am fairly new to the Real Estate field, and always wondered how exactly do people know how the market is doing.

with that said, if I'm way on the left field, I don't think you're not even close to the stadium. maybe we should hear your experience being old to the business.

Interested in getting hands on experience in real estate investment, and continuing to expand my knowledge in the field. 

I bring it up because if it's the same as I imagine it would be, then you work with a broker/owner who holds a license to manage property and practice in the field.

I work in the Allied Health field here on Long Island and am looking to create some extra cash flow through REI. 

If you know one pretty much covers more than 90% of other gurus in same field.

So the main thing is just get out in the field a find that property.
