Committed Newbie taking the plunge in Northeast Texas
Well, I thought I could build a Real Estate business while teaching but my particular position took 60 to 80 hours a week to do, so not much success in doing Real Estate on the side. At the end of this year I decided to put that time an effort into Real Estate and into REI. Since school let out I have been researching, educating myself and pouring into me as much as possible to find resources to gain the knowledge I need to move forward in Real Estate, both as an agent and an investor. That is what brought me to BiggerPockets and that is why I am here today. I figured if I am willing to work for someone else and put 60 to 80 hours in and barely make any money, I might as well put the time and hard work into me and my family and get the return of my efforts. My goal is to build a legacy for my children and to also "retire" early...well not that early, I'm already 51...lol, but early enough where I can actually enjoy the fruits of my labor.
I'm looking for accountability to help keep me focused so I've joined the 90 day challenge. I'm open to any and all suggestions and help that anyone is willing to offer. I think, but I'm not sure, my strategy will be wholesaling at first to build some capital and then move to buy and hold.
I'm excited to learn more and so happy to be a part of BiggerPockets!
