Hello All, 

My wife and I have been very interested in real estate investing for quite some time now and have decided we are going to fully dedicate ourselves to making this a success. One of the way to do that we decided, is to become an active member of BP and learn from the fountain of knowledge that is in the minds of the experienced investors on these forums. 

A little background on my wife and I. I gradutated from the University of Texas with a BS in Aerospace Engineering and now i work in the Oil and Gas Industry as a consultant. I am both a people manager and a project manager, depending on the day. I am PMP certified and look forward to using my knowledge of project management in our real estate business. My wife is a former teacher and is now a stay at home mom with our one child. She is going to get her real estate license and be the one on the ground running the business. She has great people skills and will be great at making sure all of the projects stay on time and on budget. 

Our strategy will be to focus on flipping SFHs within the West Houston area and eventually purchase rental properties to begin accumulating passive income. I will be posting our business plan shortly for critique and advice right after this. 

We are also looking to build or team and network as much as possible, so if anyone in the houston area has recommendations or just wants to meet up, we would love to do so. We are finding any meeting we can at our local REIA and from meetup.com to start that process.

We are very much looking forward to making this a success and learning as much as possible from all of the great people on BP. Thanks in advance for any advice.
