Hi Corby, thanks for the reply. I just watched you via facebook live link at Wednesday nights meet up put on by Blue Sky homes. I will have to reach out and contact you to learn more. This is all very new to me, however very interested in learning and getting into REI.

Thanks

Hey Tony. Congrats on taking the first steps. Highly suggest attending local meet ups and picking everyone's brain at those events. You can pick up a lot of great, useful knowledge to help you start as well as learn from other people's mistakes. 

Happy to share some experiences I've had as someone who started off by investing out of state.

Thanks Mike, I intend to try and attend local meet ups as much as possible, while still working my W2 job, and learn as much as possible. 

May reach out to you in the near future. Thanks.

Tony

Thank you all for your responses. Hoping to build some connections this way.  

Do you recommend buying into the biggerpockets pro version?

Here is a little more about me. 

I will be turning 50 this year and feeling as if I may be late to the real estate game. Married and father of 3, my oldest is still trying to figure out life, my middle is in her 1st year of college and we are helping pay for this, at least her 1st year, and I have a son who is a sophomore in high school. My wife is ready to retire from her job and totally into trying out REI, and after watching a newbie webinar by David Green, she is ready to put up our primary residence as a rental and look for a duplex or multi plex to purchase and live in and rent out the rest. I am hoping there are better ways to acquire a property then doing this, willing to hear any suggestions.

I am hoping to meet with someone in my area later this week and discuss all options that may be available to us in our local area for now, in regards to our current situation, financing options, and properties in the area.  I know I still have alot to learn before getting to far ahead of myself. 

thank you again and look forward to hearing from anyone. 

Tony

Welcome to BP - seems like theres some opportunities emerging in Idaho this year as prices have come down a bit after the '20-'21 mania
