Hi everyone! My name is Erika, and I recently started my career in real estate with Canvas Homes here in Raleigh, North Carolina.
A big part of my role is connecting with investors and helping match them with opportunities that fit their goals. Since I'm just getting started, one of my priorities is learning from people who have been doing this for years.
I'd love to know:
What's one lesson you wish someone had taught you when you first got into real estate investing?
I'm looking forward to learning from the discussions here, contributing where I can, and connecting with other investors and real estate professionals.

@Erika Sullivan Welcome to the BP community. One lesson I would share is to build a strong network early. A strong network with experienced investors, agents, lenders, contractors and property managers can be invaluable. Also, learn your market and how to run the numbers. Best of luck with your new career.
