Hey! Congratulations & best of luck to you on your future deals :)

@Jim Viens - Wow - that's quite the story. What did you end up doing from there? Did you back out or find another buyer at a higher price point? Thank you for sharing!

I'd love to hear about everyone's first deal! Success or not. I am new to real estate & have not yet been able to pull the trigger on my first deal here in Tulsa. Looking to hear from those of you who have done it! Couple of potential questions to get your gears going.

- How did you find your first property? What type?

- What factors needed to be in place for you to secure your first deal? Did you ensure that you had adequate financing, pre-approvals, a network of contractors/CPAs, etc.

- What did you learn form the experience?

- What did/will you do next time around?

@Jason K Green - Thank you! I just loaded up on the podcasts. Do you have any book suggestions? I would like to purchase a multifamily here in Tulsa - preferably with a little bit of work & renters to the tune of $175k max. I just moved to Tulsa in the past 4 months so I am looking to build a network & get moving on my first deal.

@Amanda Williams & @Steven Thomas - Please keep me updated :)

@Cameron Terry - I'd definitely be interested in getting into wholesaling but I don't have much of a network here (Chicago transplant) - How time sensitive has wholesaling been for you? Do you have buyers lined up already or do you just do a ton of marketing & hope to wrap up quickly?

@Marlon Wilson- Thank you :)

@Donnie Martens - Great to meet you - what kind of deals do you do in this area?

Hi Everyone!

I'm new to the Bigger Pockets community and real estate in general. I'm a Senior Analyst in Manufacturing Finance - CPA eligible, working on my real estate license. Anyone have some suggestions on where the heck to begin?! Especially while holding a fulltime job??

Thank you in advance!

PS - Are there any BP meetups in Tulsa coming up? Would love to be involved - thanks!
