1. hey everyone, im brandi! I'm from Michigan and I have no investing experience. But, I've been reading books, BP forums, blogs and watching all kinds of videos. From what I've learned, a lot of investor say to "focus on one thing and learn it" that being whatever "nich" you have. Wholesaling is what I've been really focusing on. I'm thinking that may be a good starting point for me! Anybody that has any tips or wanna connect, im open!

Hi @Brandi Bryanand Welcome to BP. Pretty new hear myself but have learned a ton in the short two months or so that I have been on here. Best advise I can give you right now is to network, network, network and read as much, listen to as much, and study as much as you can. Local REI meetups are a great way to network and I strongly suggest looking those up and attending whenever they are held in your local area. Lots of newbies show up to these events regularly, so don't be intimidated. Every one I have been to so far, I have met tons of very welcoming folks who want to pass along their knowledge, their success and their friendship if you are willing to reciprocate.

Podcasts are tremendously helpful, so are the books.  Invest time and a little bit of money in those and you will be surprised at the payback those will provide. And beyond that, make connections here with others that have similar interests and experience.  Once you do, use the @ symbol to flag them when you are mentioning them.  Just type @ followed immediately by their name exactly as you see it in their posts and after typing in a the majority of their name, a suggestion box will appear below the text box.  Select the right name from that suggestion area and it will highlight their name and flag them that they have been mentioned.  Folks monitoring their accounts will likely see that mention quicker and may not ever see it if you don't use that feature.  Just my two cents... 

Best of luck to you and let me know if there is ever anything else I can do for you.
