Hello World! I'm new to BP and excited to meet you all!

[Nathan Weber]

Hello,

I'm new to BP and to real estate investing, but am an architect and general contractor who has worked FOR real estate investors many many times over the years. I have always known I would eventually start this journey, but was concentrating on creating my first general contracting and architecture firms first. But I am now ready and have started taking steps towards officially launching my investment company. My current step in the plan is: Get Educated. 

In the process of reading books and talking to people, BP came up several times, so I figured this would be an amazing place to earn that education!

A little more about myself:

I sold my last contracting company 3 years ago and then moved to Reno, NV to raise my kids (instead of Las Vegas). In order to get things going here in my new city, I picked up a job as a Multifamily Development Project Manager to start making connections and building relationships within the Real Estate world here in Reno. I have been extremely successful at finding and creating relationships with all the various contractors, real estate agents, vendors, and mentors I think I'm going to need. I have managed over $150,000,000 worth of (completed) new multifamily development here in Reno so far, and am currently working on two more projects worth an additional $160m. 

By simply mentioning that I was going to start this company, I have already received several offers of capital. I'm taking that as a sign that I'm on the correct path!

So my short term plan is to spend this next 6 months to a year really hitting the books. I don't want to jump into something without being as prepared as I possibly can, and I REALLY don't want to mess up any relationships with people who want to provide me with capital. So, 'slow and careful' is the plan for the foreseeable future. 

I wanted to really pull the trigger with BP and start being active daily in the forums. I look forward to meeting new people and getting to know the platform!
