Hello from OC/LA, SoCal
So I realize I've posted on here a bit without formally introducing myself. >.< I first heard of BP a couple years ago, when a blog post was shared with me. When googling certain RE-related topics, I kept coming across BP. I didn't notice it at first, but the name started to become familiar to me so I figured I might as well sign up. I'm really impressed by what i've discovered about the site. It has a lot of features and so far it seems the people here are great. I've already noticed some disagreements (as is expected with humanity), but I'm pleased to find they are civil unlike your average online debate. I have been reading through the knowledgebase and can't get enough of this site.
My name is Becky and I am brand new to real estate (aside from working on a few accounts as an employee of an accounting firm). My husband is an apartment manager so he knows all about landlording, and we hope to be on the other end of it someday (actually owning the building and/or property management company).
I'm from southern California, on the cusp of Los Angeles and Orange counties, so I'm looking to network and build wealth in both these areas.
My short-term goals are to wholesale while my long-term goal is to create enough passive income to not have to worry about working, and have more time to focusing on family, charity, and other endeavors. I enjoy working, but I want more freedom in my life. I am willing to put in the double-time now (as in wholesaling in addition to my 50hr/wk "9-5" job) in order to have more free time later. I enjoy learning and trying new things, so I'm excited about this, albeit a little nervous!
