Hello, new member, excited about this adventure

David Yamamoto
Posted

Hey folks,

I'm from Seattle and just bought my first investment property near Huntsville, AL.  Probably overpaid a little but I figured it was time to stop the analysis paralysis and get some skin in the game.  I've read a lot of books over the years and have been listening to BP podcasts, but I figured the real lessons (and cost of education) will come with jumping in and learning through doing. I had to do a turnkey for the first one since I'm a little intimidated about trying to reno a property remotely. 

Hope to learn a lot for you folks!

David.

@David Yamamoto

Congrats on your first deal!  Making that move itself is the most toughest, and if you have been listening to BP podcats, hangingout on the forums and reading books, then I am sure you would have done enough due diligence!

Very few first deals are home runs, the goal is to take the plunge and learn as much as you can and build relationships!

Cheers!
