Hi BP! My name is Brian and I have been lurking around for a few weeks now, researching and gaining as much knowledge as possible. I am looking to pursue REI in the future but now am just trying to educate myself. I'm limited in my knowledge on real estate but am learning more each day.
I am notorious for becoming interested in something, researching until I am pretty confident in my knowledge, creating a plan and then doing nothing. I am hoping that by putting myself out here and becoming more immersed in this fantastic community that I will actual follow through. I'm determined to go from "observer" to "investor"!
I appreciate any advice as far as resources, reads or other sources I can use to build my foundation. Thanks in advance for everything. I look forward to being a contributing member.
I highly recommend reading a few books, listen to the podcasts here, go to networking events, and just educate your self a little further. That is what I did when I was getting started and I was able to narrow down the type of investing I actually liked the most.
@Steve Kontos Thanks for the recommendations! I've been listening to the podcasts and am currently reading "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor". I'll be a little tentative about the networking events until I get confident in my background knowledge but I'll definitely pursue them as I grow.
