Newbie from .... Germany!
Hi at all,
i've been here on biggerpockets for a while and now I would like to introduce myself. I'm Adam from Germany and want to get started in Real Estate Investing. I've been reading so much books and collecting information about REI and I also attended a few trainings to improve my knowledge to get more confidence about REI. But I want to stop excusing for not starting REI and use this introduction to start. NOW. For me, this is an important step.
I got a call from a guy who's starting as well and he told me that he's is making a good progress for his first deal. So I got even more motivated to take action.
I'm sure to meet here people, that are passionate about everything what they want to achieve.
I also want to say thank You all (biggerpockets team and members) because I learned so much by listening the podcasts and reading the content!
I'm thinking big:D And you all, too. And we can motivate eachother!
Yours all for success!
Adam
MY NEXT GOAL: 1 WHOLESALE or FLIP-DEAL
