Hello, I am new to BP because I keep hearing that this is the place to go for those who want to invest in real estate. I am a real estate agent who is interested in building my own investment portfolio.

I love to help people, and serving is ingrained into my personality. Perhaps I can even share knowledge about how REALTORS® function in the world of buying and selling real estate.

Thank you, Nadeem. Currently I plan to keep it fairly close to home in Virginia. I think that would be the best starting point. I live near an army base where there is a high turnover due to it being a training post for all branches of the military. I could do flips, long term rentals and short term rentals. There are also many other military bases within a couple of hours of me.

On the other hand, I have family in other states. Short term rentals might not be a bad idea where they live. Are you aware of any other benefits from doing out-of-state business?
