Riverside Realtor Looking to Learn and Help
Good morning BiggerPockets community. I will keep it quick. My name is Kaleb Ahonen i'm 22 and I have been a Realtor for about a year now My whole purpose to become a realtor was to eventually invest and teach others. I have been listening to BP since i was 15 and I am so excited to learn and grow in this community and hopefully to eventually invest with some of you as well. I just want to be a sponge!

Quote from @Carlos Valencia:
Hi Kaleb,
Have you been attending local real estate meetups in your area? Thats also a great place to meet investors and create new partnerships and friendships. If you have not yet I would suggest to use eventbrite or meetup.com to look event in your area. I live in OC and theres plenty out here and LA area too. I've attended many in my area and have met and created connections with some awesome people.
I am starting to yes!
