Hey BP family!
My name is Joshua Thompson and I am 23 years old. I came across BP from listening to one of their many podcasts on youtube. I'm new to the real estate investing life style. I've been on BP website for about a month now and just yesterday realized I never formally posted in the "New Member Introductions". I currently live in Ventura County, CA but looking at the GA market. My goal here on BP is to learn as much about REI as I can and hopefully find people in either state to network with. I'm currently looking for fixer uppers in C+, B- neighborhoods to slowly build my net worth. I've been pushing my unfair advantage of having a dad whose career was construction and speaking with family who knows the area. I feel and hope that finding BP was the smartest thing I could have done, and soon can say all those hours on youtube weren't a waste. Anyways, thank you all for the useful information thus far and can't wait to learn more from the BP family.

@Kevin Phu Thank you for the welcoming everyone! I'm looking at southern and eastern Atlanta. I also would like to find college housing but further down the line.

Joshua.
Glad that you are investing out of state and not down here in SoCal. Just doesn't make sense. Good luck with your journey and let me know if I can be of any help. I invest only out of state and am about the same age as you!
@Kevin Phu Thank you for the welcoming everyone! I'm looking at southern and eastern Atlanta. I also would like to find college housing but further down the line.
@Jeff Greenberg Isn't your recent college housing property located in GA?
Hey Scott, I chose those areas because I have family living in surrounding cities. They also told me those are the better parts of the GA market. However, I do plan to make a trip down there and take a look.
