Hello BP world! 

My name is Brandon Johnston and I am from Auburn, Washington(about 20 minutes south of Seattle). I am a brand new investor actively looking for my first deal although I am realizing I am not doing a great job at staying persistent. I just started getting into investing towards the end of February where I attended a 3-day training through the Richdad Program, since then have taking a wholesale class and have read quite a few books on real estate investing, taxes, corporations, self motivating, etc. I actively listen to the bigger pockets podcast among others which keeps me motivated. I have created an LLC and got my state business license started and have started putting a business plan together(20% complete) and have found a few different strategies of marketing I am starting to use.

I am currently working full time as a machinist while scrounging up time during the rest of the week to get my business rolling. I have learned a great amount of information which I believe I have enough to get started(could have along time ago) and I believe this network will help me find the people in my area to take it to the next step. 

I am glad to be associated with you all and am excited for what the future has to offer for me!

Thanks @Michele Fischer  I am currently looking to Wholesale sfh's, my immediate goal is to pay off the rest of my bad debt and then I will look into finding my first rental property. I am currently in the act of buying my first home personally as well, I thought of doing a duplex but cannot convince the other half on that idea. 

Awesome @Zach Schwarzmiller I will check out that website a little more in depth.
