New to REI

Jennifer Grbich
Posted

Hello BP'ers,

I'm new to this community, but not entirely new to REI. I'm a corporate employee and it's time to transition so that I can retire from W2. I've been in several REI programs and looking to see what folks do outside of these programs if you get my drift. I admit, my REI journey has not been given the attention it needs due to my demanding FT jobs. But looking back, I actually had the time, it's up to me to find it. I'm finding it now as I lost a few years. I eventually want to be in control of my day... slowly getting there. Currently, I've been setting up an automated system to handle leads and it's just about ready to pull the trigger but I need to feed it with leads. I've read some posts and am encouraged on the wealth of information here... I can take steps to build on my journey without having to fork out 5-8k. Thank you BP and the agent that recommended this site years ago! Looking forward to using the knowledge here to build on what I have been taught. Thanks!

If you're interested in out-of-state investing, there are some great opportunities in the Ohio markets. Many investors from California, are investing in the mid-west because of the yearly cash returns making more sense in these lower priced markets. I moved from Florida to start investing in Columbus.
