Hey BP community!

After watching BP videos on YouTube for about a year and officially joining the real estate industry as a lender post-graduation, I figured it was high time to join the forums. I have a passion for real estate and look forward to investing in the future with my first deals likely being creatively financed.

I would love to connect with anyone else in the Central Florida area and am excited to continue my real estate journey as part of the BP community!

Hey @Josias Jordan

I'm in Orlando and work on the financing side with real estate investors. I'm also part of a few meet ups and REIAs, so feel free to connect.

     This post is a great first step toward reaching your goals. Be sure to get connected with the local investor community. Many meetups happen in the Orlando area. I am local here in Orlando and always happy to connect with like-minded individuals.

    @Josias Jordan

    Welcome to the forums and congrats on taking the step. We have a very active community of people in Orlando. Happy to connect on any level, perhaps come out to CFRI meeting next week and meet a lot of local investors, trades people and make some connections there too. 

    Best of luck!

    Hi Josias, welcome to BiggerPockets! This is the best place to start learning in REI. My wife and I love the Million Dollar RE agent and the Million dollar investor by Gary Keller as well as The Abcs of Commercial Real Estate investing by Ken McElroy. Give it a read and you might find it essential in your real estate journey. If you don't mind me askin, what's the strategy you're gearing towards on?
