Hi everyone,

My name is Denice, and I'm new to  investing and eager to learn the ins and outs of real estate investing, specifically here in Texas. I’m drawn to the endless opportunities the Texas market offers and am committed to building my knowledge and skills to make smart, strategic investments.

Right now, I'm focused on understanding the basics—everything from evaluating properties and navigating financing to learning about the unique aspects of the Texas real estate market. I'm especially interested in residential rentals, STR's, or multifamily properties, but I'm open to exploring other areas as well.

I’m here to connect with like-minded individuals, gain insights from experienced investors, and contribute however I can to this community.

    Hey, Denice and welcome! 

    The forums on here are such a great way to get great free knowledge. If I ever have specific questions, I look through google and then use the BP forums as another source. Searching through the forums is like my second google, ha! Podcasts and books are another fantastic way to get some knowledge in and help understanding the basics. Lastly, I love YouTube for learning, too! 

    I'm local to the area you checked into on the post. Would love to connect and be a resource to you anyway that I can - I'm a realtor, and investor in the area and have some tips & tricks you can implement into your business and see if it helps!

     Hello, welcome to BP. I really like the fact that you made a profile with a picture first before your first post. You are already ahead of most of the others just starting out.

    Great start Denice, I'm glad you're on the forums and ready to learn. You've got a great start by being here and an idea of what you want to do. I would encourage you to read this beginners guide from BiggerPockets, it's a good bit of information so pick and choose what you want to read or read it all. It will give you a 30,000 feet view of real estate investing as a whole for different strategies and will allow you to find new ideas and to explore and see what works for you!

    Find your "why" and let that be your motivation! I would be happy to talk with you about the real estate market and what your goals are in investing. Learning as much as you can and remember, its a marathon, not a sprit so keep working hard!
