Central Florida Newbie

Hello all! I am a newbie to all of this, but I'm determined to make my first deal this year. I'm based in Central Florida and plan to invest in my area about an hour north of Orlando. I've had a very light interest in this for a long time, but never considered it to be something attainable at this point in my life. Then my dad started his journey of REI and has been very happy and successful with it. Through his encouragement, I've decided to commit to this and see where I can be 5 years from now. I'm excited for what's ahead!

    @Zackery Lucas welcome! I'm in Clermont, but do some business up your way fairly often. My brokerage has an office in Leesburg and Mount Dora too. 

    I'm an active Realtor and investor and on the board of our local REIA. We have a Lake county meeting on the 3rd Tuesday in Clermont and many others throughout the month all over Central Florida. I would be happy to send a guest pass to come out and meet/network with other local investors. Its all non profit/volunteers so just other people trying to figure it all out.

    Let me know if I can be resource for you at all. 

    Best of luck
