Another Newbie from Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Hi All,
I'm very new to real estate investing. I was looking for info on building and selling in-fills and came upon BP by accident by falling down the rabbit hole of youtube. I came across one of the podcasts and was inspired. It's very encouraging that such a community exists! I'm now trying to decide if I want to buy and hold or build and flip.
I have worked in Alberta's oil industry for 14 years and am finally trying to get some more of my equity working to make money for me. The more I read on this site the more I realize that I have a lot of useful skills in this industry. My father was a contractor, so I've been building and renovating all my life (on my own homes), also I've owned one rental house for almost 10 years now. I always looked at it as kind of a burden as I just sort of fell into it, but I'm starting to realize all the valuable lessons that managing that property has taught me.
Anyway, I love meeting new people, so if there is anyone local on here that would like to get together for a coffee hit me up! Investors, realtors, construction people, accountants, whatever, let's chat!
