Hi there! New investor in single family homes in Houston, TX area

Hi everybody,

I've been listening to Bigger Pockets podcasts for months but finally decided to get more involved in the community here.  I'm a newbie in real estate investing but excited to hit the ground running. I'm based in the DMV area and my goal is to invest in 2 single family rental homes in the Houston area since I have family there. I would love to connect with others on Bigger Pockets. My background is in technical product management so while I'm still learning about real estate through books, podcasts, and videos I'm happy to offer advice to folks that want to improve their digital presence via websites or apps. Looking forward to learning and growing with others in this community.

Welcome to Bigger Pockets!

This is a great place to learn and network. A lot of forum members are very knowledgeable in their respective fields related to real estate investing, whether that is real estate sales, wholesaling, flipping, rentals, lending, self-directed IRA and Solo 401k investing, or tax and legal guidance.

There are a few self-contained guides that you can access here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/guides

The site has quite a few tools that can be helpful for new members. I like the search features: https://www.biggerpockets.com/search
