Big Thanks to the BP community for helping many others I’ve heard on the podcasts achieving their real estate goals and dreams. I have heard alot of success stories where Bigger Pockets  was one of their main resources in achieving those Goals. I don’t plan on letting “Analysis Paralysis”, Fear, Lack of resources hold me back any longer for becoming more active in achieving MY Dreams as well. Any Advise, Guidance, Directions, Recommendations, Resources or Tools to get me any step closer is Highly appreciated. Good to officially meet the community and will be seeing you all around!!
