New to Real Estate
Hello All,
I have had an interest in Real Estate for some time, been reading RE books across and just recently I have made the decision to take action and start off.
I have been trying to get educated primarily through books/audio etc. and just this week I attended the Charlotte REIA and the Metrolina REIA to help me network (make connections), and find reliable resources to help me get started and eventually get hold of a mentor. I am new to this field and I am looking out in every direction to help me get started and work with the right folks.
I am from Charlotte, and my goal is to buy and hold rental properties starting off with buying one this year if possible. In order to minimize my risks as I am very new to this, I am trying to search for a mentor who can help me work out the steps, get my hands dirty and create a system that i can replicate.
Any help that you guys provide will be really helpful as I am still trying to figure out how to start, who to meet and what questions to ask.
I look forward to meeting you all
~Sid
