Hey there, welcome! I graduated from VT back in 96 and live down in FL now. Oddly enough, keeping my eye out for deal in the blacksburg area as well.

Hey there, welcome to BP! I'm just getting started myself down in the Sarasota area although i'm keeping my eye open in Tampa and Pinellas as well. Trying the same route as you are with the passive income and hoping to get started in the next few months with my first purchase. Just have to bite the bullet and get one done!
Welcome!

@Chiagozie Fawole As a newcomer to this arena and itching to get my first property, it's encouraging to read about success stories like yours! I do have one question...you said your group formed an LLC, did you have any difficulties in dealing with the banks as an LLC when it came to getting financed?

@Stephen David Smith Jr. I'm just getting started in this game so I'll be exploring all types of contacts, you never know who will know what! I know a few realtors in the area but will also be looking to meet all related types of contacts...inspectors, attorneys, lenders, etc. I have my eye on a couple of duplexes in Pinellas county at the moment, have to see if I can make either of those work.
Thanks for reaching out!

Hi Everyone,
I've been lurking around here for a while now, trying to take in as much as possible. I'm new to the real estate investment arena and itching to get my first deal.
My primary, initial plan is to focus on smaller multi-family units perhaps with the occasional flip here, mainly buy and hold along with BRRRR. As with most new investors, I don't have lots of money or access to private or hard money lenders...yet!
My wife and I live in Sarasota, FL...a great little city on the west coast of Florida. We both work full time jobs and certainly enjoy our fun time on the weekends. Our long -term goal is to have a nice portfolio of homes that have mostly been paid off by the time we retire where we can sell them outright or through seller financing. The short-term goal is to build that portfolio while generating a nice cash flow so that we can enjoy our years until retirement. At least those are the goals now.
I've been reading a lot of blog articles and listening to podcasts on my way to and from work ( I work an hour+ away ). Trying to get as much knowledge as I can to snap myself out of analysis paralysis and make that first purchase. Glad to be hear and looking forward to making some great connections!
Thanks!
Christian
