Hello! My name is Kyler Wright and I attend Jacksonville State University. My freshman year in college I ran track at the University of Mobile and then transferred to Jacksonville St. University to study manufacturing engineering with a concentration in management. I recently started my journey to achieving financial freedom a little over a month ago and it has been amazing. I started by reading Atomic Habitsby James Clear and it was a great starting point for me personally (I would advise anyone who hasn't read this to give it a go!) and ever since I have been reading, learning, and listening as much as I can to educate myself on real estate investing and more specifically fix and flips so I can begin building my capital. I am really hoping to find a mentor in the Birmingham/Oxford/Gadsden or any near areas I can assist and in return gain education as I continue my journey!
First, let me start by saying congratulations on being so young and already focusing on building generational wealth—that’s truly impressive!
Second, I highly recommend joining local meetups. There’s a forum called "Real Estate Classifieds" where investors post about local meetups, making it a great place to connect and find a mentor who can guide you in the right direction.
It looks like there’s one happening on the 4th Monday of each month at 6 PM at the Penn Mutual Training Room—that could be a great opportunity to network and learn from experienced investors!
