Hi all,
Wanted to formally introduce and make my first forum post on BP even though I've been a member for a little while. Looking to get out of Brandon Turner's "Analysis Paralysis" coined term and really get going in the RE investing world.
A little about me is I have been a RE broker for over 3 yrs now,(after ending a career in basketball), experience in both residential and most recently past yr. have been with a commercial firm. I am interested in buy n hold as well as flipping, all depends on the exit strategies for that property.
My goal has been to immerse myself in all types of RE, I definitely believe knowledge is power but I need to get more involved then just learning/reading. Hopefully just posting this will give me my kick-start.. look forward to networking and partnering with some savvy investors!
If you need to learn more about flipping check out J Scott http://www.biggerpockets.com/flippingbook The Book on Flipping houses and The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs. Both excellent reads.
Welcome to BP @Kevin Olson . Happy to see another local member. As Paul mentioned, there are a lot of resources on BP to take advantage of.
Where are you looking to invest?
If you are around on Wed., I'm hosting the first Unofficial BP Boston Meetup in Woburn. Here is the thread with the details. Let me know if you are interested in this or future meetings.
