hello from cleveland/chattanooga Tennessee. My name is Brock Bowen. I am just beginning my learning path into investment real estate. Just wanted to get out here and let everyone know who I am. I am very excited to have found BP. I posted once in the forums so far. This makes twice. So HELLO and I hope to talk to everyone soon. Thanks ahead of time for any and all help/advice I know I will be asking for.

@bobbystead first thank you for your comments and congrats on your rentals. That is just awesome. Hope everything continues to go well moving forward. 

I listen to the BP podcast every day. I am starting from show 1 and working my way up. I listen to 3 or 4 a day. My focus right now anyways is small multi-families. I want to do the BRRR strategy on 3 and 4 plexes. That is the plan so far. I wont be starting till spring so I can file this year's taxes. Will get into that in another post so I can ask for more advice.

Thanks again for your suggestions I really appreciate it.

first, thank you for the response. I am completely new to all this and what is and is not possible. Guess I just assumed most had to be done on site but those are awesome ideas I will be taking advantage of. I still need to get with my bank and see about a pre-approval and then will be finding a realtor. 

Newbe question here...again. isn't it shooting yourself in the foot getting a realtor that invest? My thinking is if they have a good property they would keep it instead of selling it to you. I know I need to change my thinking about things just trying to learn. Thanks again for any and all help.

so I am all excited to be here and to learn all I can. That being said I was wondering if anyone else is in my position? My wife and I are truckers gone 2 or 3 months at a time. We stay home for the most a week then gone again. So trying to figure out how to search for a investment then when its purchased do renovation and so on. Also it's just my wife and I. Mothers old and housebound. Any tips or anyone who can relate would be great. Also I am from Tennessee. Thanks in advance for any help.
