    @Bryan W.,
    Hi and welcome to the BP community!

    It’s great to have you here, and you’re already taking the right first step by reaching out and looking to connect with others. Finding a mentor or solid network early on can make a huge difference as you navigate your first investment.

    If you're open to it, turnkey rental properties might be a great way to get started—especially if you're looking for something lower-risk with built-in property management and cash flow from day one. They can be a great option while you’re learning the ropes and figuring out what strategy fits you best.

    Feel free to reach out if you have questions or want to talk through different markets or strategies. 

    Best of luck,

    Melissa
