Hello BP community. My name is Jimmy Clark and I am a Licensed Real Estate Agent here in Atlanta. I moved here about 1 1/2 years ago from Maui, Hawaii in which I spent 10 years there. Nope, I wasn't in the military, just ended up staying after I moved to help a friend start up a real estate publication. I decided to move to Atlanta to pursue a real estate career, as well as be closer to my family. We are all getting older and it just felt like the right time. Atlanta seemed like a good choice, plenty of people and options in real estate. I can tell you there are no 30K rehab houses in Maui! The cheapest house in my neighborhood started at $350K, and that was about 1000SQFT of shack.

So I was able to have my Hawaii license reciprocated here in Georgia, and have been in the sales hustle since Jan. of 2014. I really love being in real estate but my goal is to not just be an agent, but to be an investor. I truly enjoy creating, so the thought of finding, fixing and flipping a house is a dream to me. I am constantly looking at houses and looking for deals. I know I have the vision, just need the knowledge and education. I tell myself "oh, if I only had $50K cash I could easily make some money on a deal." I now know it is not that easy.

I hope that this site can bring me to a stage in my life that I put down the RE agent hat and put and keep on the RE Investor hat. I want to be a sponge, i am ready to learn, ready to invest my time and sweat to make it happen. I look forward to talking to and learning from this BP community.
