Hi everyone, my name is Josephine Parson, and I am newbie from Philadelphia, PA. I took an interest in real estate investing in 2006. I've been a homeowner for 14 years and in 2006, I purchased my first rental property generating a positive cashflow of $230.00 a month. My goal here at biggerpockets is to learn ways in finding great deals and partnering with investors in completing those deals. Ultimately, as time goes on, I will be learning to master the art of becoming an experienced real estate investor. |

Welcome Josephine, Sounds like you are well on your way. The first investment helps you to overcome the fear of getting started, and every deal teaches you and motivates you. Good luck on your pursuits, and keep us informed of your efforts!. Thanks, Mike S. |

Yes, I plan on doing more investing in properties. Actually I am looking to partner with people in buying properties and splitting profits here in the Philadelphia, Delaware County area. I am taking a course in Pre-forclosure and beginning my marketing strategies with flyers and business cards. So hopefully this site will help me out a whole lot. |

Hi Josh, this forum is great. Yeah, I did have some small difficulties with this site in the beggining, however, I am a fast learner and I caught on quick. I got a response from an investor who may be interested in doing a deal with me. So I will let you know how that works out. |

Josephine,
Which pre-fore closure course are you doing? I am going to one in NJ mid July. Welcome to the forum and you have already made the first step which is often the hardest in investing. rdinvestors |

It's nice to know that I have an investor in my general area. I have some experience in investing. I have one rental property, tenant occupied for the last two years generating a monthly positive cashflow of $230.00. The house was a total rehab. I am a student of the Short Sales Magic Program with Tom Butler in Pre-Forclosures. |
