Eager to Learn and Get Started
Hi Bigger Pockets,
I'm currently a minor league baseball player in the Minnesota Twins organization. I'm new to the world of real estate investing, but I'm interested in learning, developing a network, and getting started on my own investing journey.
I'm reporting to spring training in Fort Myers, FL next week. I was wondering if there was anyone in that area who needed some help with their real estate operations while I'm there. I'm driven and eager to learn and I'd be happy to send along any additional information needed to get started.
On a more long-term note - I grew up, went to university, and currently spend my off-seasons in New Jersey. I'm interested in learning more about the real estate market there because that's where I think I'll be long-term.
Thanks for your time and I'm looking forward to hearing from you all!
Ben
