Hi there from Fowler, Indiana!
Hi everyone! My name is Christy Hall and I just got into real estate. I am always looking for ways to invest my money. In fact before real estate I was into sports investment and stocks. I scored big on sports and still do, but failed at stocks. And as the profits started to pile, I wanted more ways to invest my money. My boyfriend opened my eyes to the potential money that could be made from real estate. So I scoured the net for useful websites and found this. After reading some of the forum posts and Im excited to be apart of your community and I look forward to meeting bright informative people and making some serious connections.

Thank you Phillip! Websites are a fantastic way to gain exposure. In fact a web presence has been shown to increase sales and expand your network...like BiggerPockets for instance. I would love to give a crack at making your website (if that's what you were hinting at), but lately real estate has taken up quite a bit of my time. I didn't know how much until a few days ago. I guess I was naive to think I could do two professions back to back as well as go to school...now I know better. And you're correct - the real estate world is overwhelming. I need to choose an area to focus on, learn the basics and give it my all.
