Hello Mr. or Mrs. BP Friend,

Another newbie has entered the BP world and is AVIDLY looking to help be of service to anyone willing to lend their experience and services to helping me get in the game of REI. I'm open to partnering, lending, serving, or talking with someone who is taking action so that I can get off the sidelines. My current position:

  • Joined a 3 day real estate investment class in  June and loved listening and learning to the benefits of the field. 
  • Signed up for a class on Lease options, which I have almost completed... but unfortunately have not taken any action on this.
  • Listened to the first 20 episodes of BP podcasts and love it
  • Watched 4 webinars on BP
  • Building financing (closing on a HELOC soon)
  • Getting an LLC. (Legal Zoom?)
  • Looking to buy another house in the next 6 months to move into so that I can rent out the house I'm currently living in.
  • Considering a mailing campaign to absentee owners in my surrounding area for the next 12 months to get my name out there and find some deals for wholesaling or buy and hold.
  • Working Full time and trying to find ways to create time to further my REI experience ASAP.

For those that understand where I currently am at on the journey of real estate investing, please help shed some light on how to not waste time and get moving. Feels like the greenville SC market is pretty hot and its important to know when a good deal is coming across your plate and to ACT fast. Also hesitant to get a dump of a house without understanding proper rehab costs, process and working hard only to lose money on the house. 

Current goals:

  1. To create an LLC in the next 1 month.
  2. To build $100k in capital in the next 2 months.
  3. To partner with 1 investor on a deal in the next 6 months.
  4. To buy 2 SFH rental properties or 1 multi-fam before June 1.
  5. To successfully complete 3 wholesaling deals before June 1.

Thanks for reading this Mr. or Mrs. Experienced Investor, and I am now ready to help be of service to you.
