I haven't logged in to biggerpockets in years and it's been even longer since I was active, so I figured I'd re-introduce myself.
I'm a full time agent/investor. Currently making most of my income as an agent. Buying a rental in few weeks so that's exciting. Got appointed as a city planning commissioner last year so I get to learn a lot about development without having to take the risk myself yet, but I'm working towards that. I've done a lot of land deals (50+) but never develop them, just buy low and sell high. I've also got a wife and two kids who tolerate my career well and are the best part of my life.
Anyway, good to be back, plan to be active and hope to become a better investor and agent.
@Tim Bishop thanks for posting Tim. Hope to hear more from you. Also, there are several real estate groups that meet in our area. Sounds like you are a busy person but might be good to stop by a few. Here's the ones I would recommend:
Real Estate Groups
Several of these will have similar names but they are different. And these are the groups that I feel comfortable recommending. Several groups in DFW will try very hard to sell you things if you attend. Some are like $20,000. These are not that.
DFW REI Club
–
– meet about 50 times per year. Lots of different topics and a very friendly group.
