Hello BP community,

My name is Kyle, I am 27 and I currently live in Wilmington, NC. I have been in sales for the last 6 years and am finally deciding to take the steps towards a career in real estate. My experience includes selling digital marketing strategies for an Inc 500 company, leasing office equipment (any ex-copier guys out there?) and now I am a regional sales rep for a med equipment company and I cover the Southeast US. I have over 700 hours of documented sales training. Throughout my (relatively short) career I've become passionate about sales and can't help but shake the idea that the most lucrative thing to sell is real estate... The most successful people I know have done so by selling real estate. Which is why I am here!

I stumbled across the BP Podcast and have been making my way through the episodes. This is allowing me to figure out which direction I should head (ie wholesaling, flipping etc..) So I am still not entirely sure how I am going to approach this yet. The podcast has been great for that! 

I am looking to network with anyone willing to do so. I am particularly interested in my local market of Wilmington but I am often in the Raleigh-Durham, Charlotte, Charleston and Myrtle Beach area and would be excited to connect with people in those markets as well, I travel extensively for my current job. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am very excited about being active in the BP community and encourage anyone to connect with me. 

Regards, 

Kyle Sailor

@Kyle Sailor

Welcome to BP!  All the areas you listed in your original post are excellent areas for investment real estate.  My advice now is to pick an asset class and get your criteria together, once you do that you can get a plan together and work your plan.  Our Team is currently looking for multifamily properties in the Wilmington MSA, I would love to jump on a call sometime and discuss further.  PM me for details.

Best of luck!
