Newbie needs help getting started

[Nick Wimmel]

Hey BP! My REI journey began when a good friend of mine turned me on to the Biggerpockets podcast in January. Since then, I caught the REI bug, listening to the BP podcast on my work commute, buying and reading real estate investing books and telling everyone I know that I am getting into Real estate investing. Currently, I live in Santa Barbara where the average home price is $1 million +, which means I need to look and invest in a different city and or state. I am writing this post with the intention of starting a conversation and making connections to continue my journey of purchasing my first property.
