Part-time investors often long for the freedom full-time investors have. They want to know how you quit your day job to become a full-time real estate investor. What are the steps to successfully making this transition? My guest today is Billy Keels who lives in Barcelona, Spain.

Freedom over his time. He wanted control over his time. Today he is going to talk about how he strategically made the transition from his demanding career to full-time real estate investing.
