Hey Guys, 

My name is Juan Jaramillo, I have had a bigger pockets profile for about 6 months, but I haven't introduced my self. I am majoring in marketing at USC Upstate in Spartanburg, SC. I am currently reading about real estate investing to learn how the industry works and I would love to start getting involved in the real estate investing community.I don't have any experience in real estate but I have some experience in creating websites and I speak Spanish fluently. I'd like to help in any way I can. I'd love to network and meet anyone who'd like to meet up so I can pick their brain and learn from their experience.

    Hi @Juan M. Jaramillo , 

    Welcome to the BP community! Great place to learn and to connect. I'd also encourage you to check out your local REIAs (search "real estate" on meetup.com) to meet investors in person. All the best!

    Welcome to Bigger Pockets @Juan M. Jaramillo, I am fairly new as well and I've gone to a couple of meetings at one of the Panera's in Greenville that I have found to be very informative and great for networking.  Anything I can do to try and help please feel free to reach out at anytime.

    Thanks @Richard Cummings. Panera in Greenville is only down the road from my house. Are the meetings in meetup.com also?
