Newbie from Baltimore to Orlando
Hello to all, I'm new to real estate investing and bigger pockets. I am a retired nurse looking for some financial freedom. I currently live west of Baltimore, Maryland but I will be relocating to the Orlando area within the next year. Initially I am looking to make some capital by purchasing distressed properties in these areas and either assigning the purchase contract to, or immediately re-selling the asset to a contractor or other investor to rehab and resell or to hold as rental property.
Sounds like a simple enough plan, and one I'm sure many of you have made. So I need cash buyers, "investor friendly" real estate agents. and of course properties, in that order. So far i seem to find plenty of properties for which the numbers look good but my greatest challenges seem to be finding cash buyers and "investor" friendly agents.
I have a lot to learn so I'm open to everyone's expertise. Thanks in advance. Kathi
