Just want to learn

Hello Everyone,

My name is Philip Breeden. I'm a 24 year old veteran and I am going to LSU for construction management. I've always been interested in real estate but I never knew where to start. I'm very interested in fixer-uppers and (eventually) owning rental properties. Im not in a position to purchase now but I like to learn as much as I can before I commit to big financial endeavors. I happened upon this website a few weeks ago and have been researching more and more since then. I was hoping that there was a club or an organization based in Baton Rouge and I figured that this would be the perfect place to ask. Thanks for your help.

Philip, you came to the right place and there is an organization in Baton Rouge that is just what you are looking for. In fact you just missed this month's meeting, but the RING (Real Estate Investor Network Group) meets on the 2nd Tuesday of every month. It is a great place to network and learn. 

I graduated LSU in Construction Management also and the great job opportunities that afforded me has made it very easy for me to get financing from local banks. Keep learning and you will find you will be ready to take some action sooner than you think. 

Take action and I'll see you at the top! 

Brandon
