Hi Everyone,

I've been on this site at times and really thought the forum articles were excellent. Now I'm ready to begin my own investing. I am a full time Realtor in Santa Rosa, CA (about 45 mi north of San Francisco.) Besides being in real estate, I am also an artist and love to hike in and around Sonoma County.

My plan is to invest some energy into reading and contributing on this site, to pick up investing ideas. Of the various possibilities for investing, I'm thinking that wholesaling would be a start for me. I'd use transactional funding, possibly through the Larry Goins program. I'm also aware of my concerns about investing in properties out of state since as a real estate agent, I'm so used to being able to drive to the property of interest and walking through it. I know many others invest in that way and I'd like to try it. Developing a buyers list is, of course, one of my first steps.

Just introducing myself and looking forward to being involved here.

Thanks, Mehran, I will check out your podcast. The more I read here, and there is so much to read, I'm thinking one could just get the info they need to invest on this site.
