Newbie from Inland Empire, Alta Loma, Southern California, Trying to Get Out Of the Rat Race

Hello, I am Romel Aquino from the Inland Empire area, in Alta Loma near Rancho Cucamonga, Southern California. Currently, I am an employee of the local power utility company for 11 years. I've been listening to the BP podcasts since 2013 while driving to and from work. I would like to network with the BP members who are located near where I live and work. I am starting to do my marketing to pre-foreclosures to generate leads for wholesale and fix-flip. Hopefully, I will be able to find my first deal and close very soon. I'm tired of the rat race and plan to do the real estate investing full time when the profits I earn from investing surpass my W2 salary. I know it will be hard, but I also know I have to persist to get what I want. I'm looking forward to interacting with all the BP members.

Hello @Romel Aquino !

Congratulations on taking the first step towards investing in Real Estate. Many people get stuck in a loop of reading / researching and never take that action.

I am a full time investor and licensed Realtor in the Inland Empire. I also consult with my clients on how to begin investing in real estate and be successful at it. If you ever have any questions feel free to send them my way. If you ever want to meet for coffee I am happy to do so!

Best Regards,

David Friedman
