Richmond, VA Rookie!
Hi fellow life-hackers! I'm in Richmond, VA and got interested in R.E.I. from my downtime during the pandemic. I'm interested in BRRR, house hacking, and getting licensed here in my town. I'm currently the leading sales rep for the largest independently owned brewery in Virginia and I love it, but the pandemic opened my eyes to creating my own wealth. With the valuable skills and work ethic I've found in the beer industry, I'm confident that I have the foundational tools to manage myself and my time to find financial freedom in the future.
I'm in the beginning stages of building a tiny house for myself on my mom's property to eliminate rent cost for the next few years while I save to get licensed and invest in my first deals. I'm getting so excited about this way of life and have been reading voraciously to get more acquainted. A couple of weeks ago I finished Scott Trench's, 'Set for Life' and am currently half way through 'How to Invest in Real Estate' by the man and wing-man themselves, Josh Dorkin & Brandon Turner. Currently up to podcast show number 22 and flying through more daily!
Please reach out if you're familiar with the RVA market! I look forward to connecting more with this awesome community :)

@Margo Fairchild Nice to meet you! I'm invested in the Richmond area market as well (about to close on my 5th property), and I work for Renters Warehouse as their Business Development Manager. I'd be more than happy to share my knowledge with you as you get started. In my opinion, we're in a fantastic market for real estate investing. :)
