New to BP from Dallas TX

[Christopher Zink]

Hello everyone on BP!! I must say this is a great website that is packed full of valuable information and contacts. Hopefully this will allow me to meet other people in the DFW area that invest in real estate also.

About myself, I'm not totally new at the real estate investing game. In the early to mid 2000s I was successful in a passive role but got out when the market tanked in 2009. My wife and I relocated to Dallas from the Carolinas in 2010 and I have keen working my life away in an upper management job ever since. Over the past year I have been working on my exit strategy form the working world to chase my dream of becoming a full time investor / flipper. We managed to save a years income up and I recently resigned from my job that I was working 80 hours a weeks to focus on this full time. I am blessed to have a wife that supports this goal and has a job that can support both of us while I start this new venture.

I'm really hoping to meet other investors like myself in the DFW area and to learn as much as possible. If this goes anything like the companies that I have managed in the past, all will be good. Knowledge is power and you can never learn enough or have too many contacts in anything that you do.
