I am very new to this space. Buying my own house recently is the only real estate transaction I have done so far in my life. Hope to get more active in this space soon.
I am looking into becoming a real estate investor. I currently own my own condo and I worked for a 1031 Exchange Company for 7 years. I have some knowledge of the industry, but no experience in investing. I would like to research and learn more about real estate investing as I become one myself!
I have one year real estate agency experience - my background is years of systems programming, project management and service management in the corporate environment.
I have set up my own office (Small Home Office) and operate from it. Vision is to stay in this, and be solely independent for as many years as I live.
I bought and sold one duplex. It was bought in 2008 for too much money and, because of my inexperience and ignorance of the different facets of being a residential landlord and the housing bubble bursting, I lost over a $100,000.00. I want to get back into real estate, because I believe it is an important component in your investment...
