Born-again investor from Cary, Il
Hello, I'm Ray Wicker from Cary, Il. formerly from Chicago, Il. I say that I am a born-again investor because I have been out of the market for a while and felt it was time to jump back in. While in Chicago my partners and I did some flips but that went away after I moved 50 miles away.
I have been working as a title examiner for 35 years and recently decided that I am missing out on all the deals that come across my desk on a daily basis. So I decided to re-commitment myself to investing.
After finding Bigger Pockets by accident, I realized how little I really known about investing. So I have been listening to the podcasts during my commute just to get re-educated.
I would like to get to know the other investors in my area and possibly partner up. I am leaning toward buy and hold properties but after finding Bigger Pockets I realize that there are many, many other avenues to go down.
