[Nelson Quiles]

Hello everyone! My name is Nelson and I'm a newby from Jacksonville Beach, FL. I'm interested in every aspect of REI. I haven't done a deal yet (still in the education phase) but my goal is to have my first within a month. Always willing to listen to any advice/experience stories.

Hey Nelson,  

Welcome to BiggerPockets.  I live in the Jacksonville area as well.  I'm not an advanced investor yet but I guess my advice would be:  Make sure of your property analysis.  Every house has a price that it can be bought for to yield a great return.  The trick is offering that price and sticking to the numbers without letting your emotions get tied up in the deal.  I think if you are doing it right, you will analyze A LOT of properties, make an offer on some, and actually on close on the best deals. I don't think there is a better place to learn than BP!
