Hey BP community,

Been a lurker for a while and constantly reaffirming to myself that networking and helping each other out will lead to success. I'm looking forward to working with each of you on BP since it has provided so much in return already = podcasts, blog posts, materials, videos, forums, etc.

Currently located in Dallas and although it's pretty obvious the inventory has dried up and seems like everyone is an investor, I'm motivated in connecting with the right people and resources to facilitate success. Going to be proactive and call on a few folks who I've seen to be pretty active and knowledgeable and put myself out there to see if we could connect: Chris Soignier, Hattie Dizmond, Jon Klaus, Mark Allen, David Veeder to name a few.
Don't mean to alienate anyone as I'm a very network minded individual who sees the value in building solid relationships.

As for investing, I'm actively pursuing a multi-unit (duplex to fourplex) to utilize as an owner occupant but an looking to ramp up additional units by the end of the year.

I've gotten my foundation down and now want to get this knowledge into consistent action.

Have some ideas and questions to share as well on the forums, pretty excited to get involved here and start returning the favor to BP and what it has provided.

-Tom

Side Note: wife says I could pass for a Brandon Turner doppleganger being a talkative 6'5" beareded guy. But she says I'm slightly better looking, sorry Brandon! :P
