Good afternoon,

My name is Caitlin Bushong. I am currently residing in Black Mountain, NC just 30 minutes from Asheville, NC. I am currently working towards gaining my real estate license. I found out about BiggerPockers while reading The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner. I was actually about to start school fulltime in August to obtain my bachelor's in business administration but after some soul searching, and a lot of reading, I am eagerly diving into all thing's real estate. My main goal is financial independence in order to provide wealth and experiences for my loved ones. I am passionate about owning and operating rental properties, specifically multifamily units. I am truly harnessing my inner sponge and thrilled to now be a part of this community in order to soak up all the knowledge through networking as I continue to learn and grow.

    Hello Sloane, 

    Thank you for the welcome. I will absolutely take advantage of the recourses available through BP. I am currently reading several books that the BP podcast recommended, and they have been tremendously helpful.

    I look forward to connecting with you.

    Hi @Caitlin Bushong. Welcome to BP and Asheville as well. We have a casual BP meetup in town that you'd likely enjoy. You'll meet people that are 1 step ahead, 10 steps ahead, and no steps ahead in their journey. This Wednesday we meet at Hi-Wire on Lyman (i.e., RAD location) at 6PM.

    @Caitlin Bushong

    Hello and welcome to BiggerPockets. You have come to the right place to learn about real estate investing. I actually learned about this forum from the same Brandon Turner book that you mentioned. There is so much information to absorb within this forum, the podcasts generated by BiggerPockets as well as a wealth of books that are available about real estate investing (several of which were written by members of BiggerPockets as well). This forum is very active in answering questions so please feel free to ask any and all questions you may have. We are all here to learn from one another. Best of luck on your real estate journey!
