Hello BP! I'm located in Shasta County CA and have been engulfed by the BP audiobooks, podcast and such! I don't have any investments yet mostly because my wife and I just got married and bought our primary residence. Wishing I had bought a duplex or really any piece of property straight out of high school for a jump start but here I stand. 

I have had a hard time getting started and am anxious to get my first deal. I'm thinking of a BRRRR deal but having just bought the primary, probably wont be able to go with conventional financing anytime soon but maybe!

We have a decent amount saved up and have thought about doing a out of state deal but might be good to do a deal near me to start out. 

What do you all think? Think I should just wait it out or dive straight in? Any advise of what a beginner should do?
