Newbie from Fort Myers fl,
Hello everyone!
My name is Shanda! I'm orginally from northern Georgia, but currently living in the Fort Myers Florida area. I am extremely new to everything, and that is why I am here to learn as much as I can about how everything works! My husband and I have been thinking about getting into the real estate business and house hacking! For right now I just want to learn as much as I can, and to meet new people along the way!
*I am working on getting a profile picture up! I can't seem to upload one from my phone, which is where I'm doing all my posting for now.
Welcome to BP! It's good to see fellow Fort Myers investors on the site. Be sure to dig around the site, because you will indeed find some gold!
Let me know if I can ever help you out!
Welcome to BP! You found the right place! I am willing to help as well!
Thanks! I have been reading non stop for 2 days now! I didnt know i would have people so close willing to help! I am defiently excited to start this adventure!
