@Account Closed Welcome to Bigger Pockets! This community has singlehandedly changed my life, and I am certain it will change yours as well!
If you haven't taken the opportunity to complete your profile and upload a head shot of yourself, you will want to do that as soon as possible. Completed profiles with photos will lend credibility to your postings, plus it helps us get to know you better!
A great starting point is the Bigger Pockets Ultimate Beginner's Guide. It breaks down all of the basics of real estate investing, and will give you a solid base to launch your real estate investing from.
One of my favorite resources is the Bigger Pockets Podcast. Each week Josh and Brandon interview a different real estate investor. These podcasts cover everything from Buy & Hold investing, Flipping, Wholesaling, to Note investing and beyond. Josh and Brandon do a great job of keeping the podcasts lighthearted and entertaining as well!
Another great resource is the Bigger Pockets File Place. In the File Place you can find several deal analysis spreadsheets, due diligence checklists, and numerous contract and agreement templates.
Lastly, once you have a real estate investing deal in your sights, make sure you stop by and check out the Bigger Pockets Real Estate Investment Calculators. I have personally used the .PDF report that they create to present my deal analysis in a professional and concise manner.
Oh! If you want to tag someone in a post, simply use the @ symbol and then begin typing in their profile name. A drop down list of names will appear at the bottom of the reply box, and you can then click on the person you wish to tag.
Again, great having you on the site. Please do not hesitate to ask questions and be active on the forums!
