Hello Bigger Pockets!
My name is Karis Reavis and as my title mentions, I am just getting started in Real Estate and would love to start making connections. I am based out of Austin, TX and I am looking to purchase my first rental property in Oklahoma City, OK along with three of my friends in December 2020. I work as an Engineer at a tech company here in Austin, and I am looking to start building wealth early in my career.
My ultimate goal with Real estate is to set it up as passively as I can to boost my current income or even potentially turn it into my primary source of income. However, with my first rental property my goal is really to learn the process and build a network of people to potentially do business with in the future.
If anyone is in the Austin or OKC area I would love to connect with them and see where our goals might align and we can help each other out.

What up, @Karis Reavis! I'm going to second and third the other contributions on this thread -- it's possible anywhere and everywhere (except Detroit)!
The keys are to start with the end in mind (the vision and the compelling why) and then work backwards to choose the right strategy (or heck, any strategy that remotely works) and then ride that horse patiently!
Welcome to the BP community @Karis Reavis. I would love to hear more about your story sometime. I work in the private money sector focusing on OKC and Tulsa. I concur with the other members that you will see success in any market simply by showing up and looking for knowledge. Send me a message when it works for you, looking forward to connecting.

Hey @Karis Reavis. I'm a local agent and an investor with a handful of doors spread out of OKC. I'd love to help you scout out a property in the OKC market when you're ready. Let me know if I can be of help!
