Starting out -- In search of connections

Posted Oct 25 2022, 18:50

Hello, All! 

I am a brand new investor in the Wichita area, following the military into this lovely area. I just bought my first property (a condominium), but I am hoping to scale quickly. I would love to meet any investors in the Wichita area and connect. I would also really appreciate any recommendations for investor friendly real estate agents to help me find creative financing opportunities in the market. 

Thank you!

Welcome to ICT, Ian! I've lived most of my life here and there's plenty to like about the area. I'm fairly new to investing as well, though I have worked in commercial property management and appraisals in the past. I've been househacking a duplex near WSU for a few years. Happy to connect.
