what does "any firearms" mean? In Texas, that could quite possibly crash the market

Does she work exclusively (or at least mostly) with investors?

Found it at meetup.com - thanks, I'll be there tomorrow!

Hey there - I'm a brand spanking-new investor in Austin, TX, but I'm not here just to kick tires... I'm here to find and renovate/flip a number of smaller properties this year to quickly build up a full-time real estate investing business.

I've been in the IT industry for about 15 years and I have recently found myself with a lot of spare time on my hands (my clients are well taken care of, so there's very few issues that need my constant attention), but the industry is changing, and and I am very motivated to add a new income stream. I know from experience that I'm not all that hot at marketing, so if you're a wholesaler in the Austin area (especially in the Northern suburbs - even as far as Taylor or Leander), I'd love to hear what kind of properties you might have in your pocket. Looking for distressed SFR in the sub-200k ARV range for now (don't want to bite off more than I can chew out of the gate.)

Alternately, if you are a seasoned investor looking to eschew the lower-end flips you come across so you can move up into higher priced projects, or if you want to semi-retire and would like to help mentor someone new, I'd love to work as an apprentice or mentee if you're willing to let me do some hands-on training. (I'll bring some Round Rock Donuts!)
