Hi Daliz Colon
Lets keep things simple when it comes to real estate. You're in a good place to start your venture into this fluid market, I agree with Gimenez as he states, you have to be careful as you invest in this market, you can lose money but gain insight into your next deal. First, settle on what Country you want to start your real estate venture in. Two, find out what criteria, within the market you feel more comfortable investing in ( i.e.commercial, residential, multifamily units, land, rehab homes etc.) Third, build your real estate portfolio (easily done) with your BP family, the BP family already have investment property for sell you can tap into.
Also if you need a quick walk through of contracts we will be happy to share that info with you as well. Fourth, pull the trigger on your first property to get your foot wet. Fifth, make a profit off your project, look over what you need to do better the next time, and do it again.
Happy Hunting, Vernon

Hi Bruce Lynn
Thanks for the heads up on getting a list of County properties prospects. It's been my experience that, buying such list of any real estate property prospects, that I always find the list to be out-dated and inaccurate data. How do you avoid not getting what you paid for? at least getting 50% of a quality list that you can actually use.

I meant to say, that's working in "different neighborhoods" you're working in.

Hi Kathleen
Although I'm not a lady and I know that's really the perspective you're seeking. Being "Scared" of certain neighborhoods is a mindset of those who are mentally controlled by what they've been taught. In this business you must be fearless in your approach of "driving for dollars". How ever, I'm not lost in your underline concerns.
So, you should consider driving in areas that you feel, are safe enough for you first. Consort with other lady's (in the BP family and other sites) that aren't working in different areas that you're driving for dollars in. You guys can compare notes on safety and big money opportunities, in areas you love and fear.But, my guess is that you'll do just fine.
