Hi BP,

I am new to Real Estate investing, and am very glad I have found this site. I read the Ultimate beginners guide ( which was great), and have been working my way through the podcasts on my commute.

I am interested in buy and hold properties mainly. However, I live on the West Side of Los Angeles, and the numbers just don't work here. I have been looking at properties out of state since they are more affordable. I know that maybe not the best way to start, there are going to be hurdles to get over, but that is why I am here.

I am looking forward to learning more, and connecting with local investors as well as those in markets that I am looking to invest in.

Excited to be here, and start investing,

Ken Cooper
