New Investor and HUGE BP Fan
I am a new investor in the DFW area. I have listened to thousands of hours of BP podcasts (as well as others) and audio books on the various forms of investing.
I am "that guy" with 800+ credit, what I believe to be more than adequate knowledge, great communication skills, a real estate sales background, and very little REI experience.
I'm anxious to find a great Core 4 (Lenders, Deal Finders, Contractors, Property Managers) and start a successful buy-and-hold REI career, locally and/or long distance. I am open to most strategies, with a particular interest in the relatively new assisted living house model.
I'd love to connect with anyone who likes to talk real estate investing, and find productive meet-ups anywhere in the local area.
I'm Brad. Potential partner and good potential connection for future endeavors!

@Brad Fry welcome to BP! I think you're off to a great start with listening to podcasts. I agree with @Josh Rodriguez advice of reading Brandon Turner's book and also love The Real Estate Guys podcast. Have you checked out REI videos on youtube? I personally like Ben Mallah and Grant Cardone, tho Cardone can be too much for some people.
Just be careful not to fall into Analysis Paralysis!
Networking with like minded investors is also a great way to get your feet wet. Check meetup.com for local REI meetups in your area. Just taking that action alone and getting out there will lead you to your first deal. @Josh Rodriguez, do you attend any good meetups in the Bay Area?
Good luck on your journey!
