New Member getting into Real Estate Investing from Arkansas

My name is Dustin,

I am almost 30 with a wife and 2 kids, that are my entire world. I have been interested in real estate for years but never pulled the trigger on investing or renovating until this year. I work out of the country a vast majority of the time so it makes it hard to do the footwork so I am mostly looking online. My home I live in was actually supposed to be a flip but 4 years later I am still living in it.

My main goal for the next year is to atleast buy 2 vacant lots and 1 house to renovate. I have some in mind currently and trying to get everything lined out and if all goes well, I will have the 2 lots by June. The house will come and can at any point during the year.

I am open to advice from those with the experience that are willing to offer and easy to get along as well.

Thank You

Dustin O

Hi there @Dustin Oaks! Welcome and congrats on finding this great source of information here at BiggerPockets. I'm an investor in the central arkansas area. If you're out of the country a lot and need some boots on the ground in my area, just send me a message. I'd love to help.
