Thank you BP! My first Out of State offer was just accepted

THANK YOU to the BP community for giving me the knowledge and courage to buy my first property out of state.

After 2 months on the site, and plenty of webinars (Thank you @Brandon Turner)- especially the one when I committed to myself to buy within 90 days- today it happened.

I took the plunge and bought my first property with the help of some amazing people on BP who provided great referrals.  I couldn't have done it without the platform, or the help of @Peter Comb @Ariel Goldenberg @Jared Townsend and countless others who have written blogs/posts/discussions and answers that have helped me.  It was interesting to go through the work that's required to mitigate the risks of investing far from home while working a full time job.

And yes.. I'm still slightly freaking out, checking and rechecking all the numbers over and over and they still look good.    

I'm off to look for another house to buy :)

Can you explain how you viewed 70 properties in that short of a time period? Was it with one or more realtors, or just driving by?
