Thanks all! Parker, appreciate reaching out! I believe we’ve been in contact recently, and I did a walkthrough on one of your homes late last year.

I see you’re in Georgia. If you ever need “boots on the ground” for properties in the Summerville/Charleston area, please let me know!

Yah Dave and I met; he seems competent, self-assured, and reasonable. Maybe we can work together in the new year. It certainly helps to be so close in proximity and be alike in a few other ways.

@Jason Merchey thanks for the kind words.  

Yes, Jason and I met.  Jason is reliable, determined, and as mentioned shares some commonalities with me.  We hope to collaborate in the near future, and experience growth of our businesses as a result

Hello! @Dave Rav

Welcome to BP, and congratulations on making the decision to invest in your future via real estate.

I have written a few blog posts that may help you get started here on BP, and with your investing. Please click on the links, give them a read, and share your thoughts in the comments.

First is a post that I feel will help not get overwhelmed with the amount of info that is here on BP:

https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/5868/52761-the-simple-guide-to-getting-started-on-bp

The second is a post that will help get you focused with your real estate investing goals:

https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/5868/52743-im-new-to-bp-any-advice-would-be-appriciated

The last one is a post that will help you choose an “investor friendly” real estate agent.

There are many agents out there, but it’s important to choose the right one.

https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/5868/52724-im-new-to-investing-how-do-i-find-an-investor-friendly-agent

I love answering questions if you have any! Good Luck :)
