Hello BP, I'm Raymond from Jacksonville, Fl

[Raymond Stokes]

Well let me start off by saying hello everyone. I have been a member since July but, didn't really start accessing the site until recently. I've only just started reading varies post in the past month. I'm currently in the transition stage to civilian life after leaving the Army. I'm currently seeking employment and working on getting my BA in Real Estate Studies. I also just enrolled in a Real Estate license course. I have already studied Home inspection so I'm a little familiar with that already. I want to learn as much as possible about all areas of the real estate business.

I'm looking for someone willing to assist in my educational process in the Jacksonville, Fl area. I'm not really sure what "niche" I plan on pursuing just yet (possibly buy and hold). Anyone willing to meet and talk whenever time allows would be appreciated. Thanks in advances for the support.

Raymond:

In my opinion, Jacksonville is a great place for a buy and hold investor. I have purchased several properties there even though I am from Oregon. I have bought at under 5 times annual rent income which doesn't meet the 2% rule but is about 1.7.

Have a blessed life.

Bill
