My name is Dustin,
I am almost 30 with a wife and 2 kids, that are my entire world. I have been interested in real estate for years but never pulled the trigger on investing or renovating until this year. I work out of the country a vast majority of the time so it makes it hard to do the footwork so I am mostly looking online. My home I live in was actually supposed to be a flip but 4 years later I am still living in it.
My main goal for the next year is to atleast buy 2 vacant lots and 1 house to renovate. I have some in mind currently and trying to get everything lined out and if all goes well, I will have the 2 lots by June. The house will come and can at any point during the year.
I am open to advice from those with the experience that are willing to offer and easy to get along as well.
Hi there @Dustin Oaks! Welcome and congrats on finding this great source of information here at BiggerPockets. I'm an investor in the central arkansas area. If you're out of the country a lot and need some boots on the ground in my area, just send me a message. I'd love to help.
Welcome to the team @Dustin Oaks ! There are a ton of great people on the site. There is a prior podcast (#39 I think?) that focuses on land investing.

Thank you guys for the welcome. @AdamRoberts I will definitely try and locate the podcast and appreciate the headsup!
@JimmyMoncrief sounds like you got the southern part of the state covered!!!! Nice to see others in the State have the same kind of interest!
@DanielWarren I have looked at some land down there around crossett but held back cause wasnt sure on price of timber to help cover costs of the land. was trying to locate some hunting land for a friend that lives in Little Rock.
@Matt Looney,I appreciate the offer and will take you up on it at some point in teh near future. Land is going good from what I hear in your area with the push for Natural gas wells.
