Hi from Virginia!

[Brian Stone]

Hello everyone,

I'm Brian Stone from VA and I am just starting out in Real Estate Investing. As in, all I really have to offer is to be a student to those around me and learn as much as I can from books. I don't have anything to invest yet, but I want to learn what I can so I can be educated when I'm ready.

I want to get into Flipping, Wholesaling, and being a Landlord. I want to do single family properties, but maybe move into multi-family units one day.

I was referred here by a book "10 Commandments for Real Estate Investors" by Frank Gallinelli.

I was impressed by Ely Preston's books, but it seemed very hyped, so I am continuing to read what I can about investing in all areas real estate and even the market. I would like to be wealthy and educated. In Ely's books, you can something where you find a house for sale, not pay for it, but hold it up in contract, find an investor, and then as a middle man, do the sale between the seller and investor. Seems to have worked for him, but not sure how realistic that is for me.

I am married, have a son, and my wife is pregnant with our daughter who is due in May!

Anyway, hope to network with some of you here, everyone seems very nice and helpful.

Look forward to hearing back from you guys!

Brian Stone
