Hi all. My name is Howard. I'm originally from England but have been in the States for over 11 years now. I moved from Austin, Tx last year to Cincinnati and am loving the city.

I am experienced in residential remodeling and custom cabinet making but am looking to really get my foot in the door with REI as I know that can provide me with the future I seek. But despite attending several seminars and training, the real world application has fallen well short with only 1 bird-dog commission from chasing pre-foreclosures.

I've found it hard to juggle a full-time job with trying to get started with no money in REI, LOL.

I look forward to learning from biggerpockets and hopefully kickstarting my career for real this time in a new city.

I'd love to hear from you and any advice on where is a good place to get started with limited time and very little spare money. And would definitely jump at the chance to shadow a seasoned investor in Cincinnati.

Thank you,

Howard
