@Marquice Mccloud

Congrats on the first step in your journey as a real estate investor. It is great to have such ambition and to get started at such a young age! My parents instilled that desire in me when I was young and I followed in the same path, along with many of my siblings. It has helped me grow in experience, skill and wealth both in my retirement accounts and outside of my retirement accounts. As the other posts have suggested its very important to be educated and to build a network of people you trust and who also trust you. My company is based near Philadelphia and I attend many real estate investing groups and events in the general area. There are many great real estate investing groups you can look into. Some have small membership fees and some are free. I would be happy to connect and share with you some of the groups I attend and even speak at occasionally.
