Greetings BP Community,

I'm a new member from Tampa, FL and Nashville, TN. I split my time between both cities and have properties in both places. I've been investing in real estate since about 1993. I currently own six doors, a mix of SFR, duplex and condo.

I work a full-time job outside of my real estate investments.

I have been following a buy and hold strategy up to this point. I'm ready to move to the next level ,and my short-term goal is to try my first rehab/resell (aka flip) to see if I can successfully infuse new cash into my business and grow it faster.

I'm looking forward to getting involved in the BP community and learning from the vast number of experienced investors here. I will try to contribute where I can.

All the best,

John

    Welcome to BP John! Nashville is a great place to invest. I am a real estate agent that represents many investors and I personally invest as well. Please let me know if I can help you with your first flip. Have a great day!

    Hi John, and welcome to BP! I’m a ‘fix and hold’ investor from the Bay Area in CA, and loving it! But you’ll find a variety of every type of investor on the site, and everyone is amazingly helpful. Some pointers for you: The "Learn" link across the top navigation bar has lots of great info, and so do BP members! You can click on the ‘vote’ button if you like someone's post or is helpful, and there are ‘awards’ to earn on your profile. And you can tag people by typing @ before you type their name, then clicking their name at the bottom of the message box. Welcome to the site, and good luck in everything!

    @Bobby Beard Thanks Bobby! I'm headed down to Tampa on Monday, looking forward to a week of escaping the big chill we've had up here this winter.
