Hey yall! (Yes, i said yall. Although I am from NY, my GA friends have proven scientifically that there's no more effective way to casually approach a group)
Veryyy excited to be here.
Have been meaning to join BP for a while now, but have been extremely busy procrastinating, but that season is winding down, so here I am. No more buts.
In the past few hours, I've listened to a couple of highly persuasive BP podcasts, so now I'm diving into the deep end of the forums.
I am looking forward to meeting people through the site, to talk shop, teach and learn, and ultimately, to continue investing. I have been doing this as a side gig since November 2006 and am ready to take it to the next level, man.
Please reach out to me - I heard about someone named Dawn on BP ep. 73 who finds deals and manages properties in Milwaukee, WI. We could make a great team Dawn, so Dawn (and the Dawns/Dons of the world), if you're out there . . .
Drop me a line! Can't wait to connect!
Best regards from Brooklyn,
Alex Rodriguez (yes, you can call me arod . . . smh)
I was actually referenced on two podcasts, Show 29 which I talked about Peer-to-Peer Lending as well as Show 73 which had Mehran who spoke about investing in Milwaukee. (He still invests here and I'm still working with him -- it's been 2.5 years already!)
Thanks Dawn! So good to hear from you!
It sounds like you are very familiar with your local market and Mehran spoke very highly of you. I would love to hear more about what you do.

Hi Corey, thanks for your message. A bunch of my rentals here in New York were geared towards university and med students when we first got started. Let me know what you're thinking, I'm willing to listen to anything.

Welcome to Bigger Pockets. BP is full of resources. You will find resources here from blogs to pod casts and forums. You can also send messages to members. This is one of my favorite features of Bigger Pockets especially for asking specific questions.
Dawn continues to impress and I think she has set an example for a lot of investors in their local markets on how to operate their business to make a win-win for everyone.
One of the most helpful tips I received a little bit ago was how useful mentioning people is when participating in forum discussions. You can put an "@" symbol in front of anyone's name to make sure they get a notification for when they are mentioned in a forum post. You can tell the mention is working if their name is highlighted in blue. If you refer to them otherwise, they often won't see it unless they are subscribed to the topic.
