Hi! I'm Katrina and obviously new to real estate investing. I never formally introduced myself when I first joined BP last year.

My main profession is in Healthcare IT. I'm starting my REI journey with wholesaling using the yellow letters direct mail campaign. The goal that is at the top of my list is to close my first deal. As we all know, closing that first deal is major! I'm really looking forward to doing so.

If you're in my area, feel free to connect with me.

Hello Bigger Pockets newest member!

I just wanted to take a moment and say hello as I also am an Atlanta-area investor. I live on the north-end of Atlanta but do most of my investing inside the city-perimeter. There are a couple good REIA's here in Atlanta that I would recommend you consider joining if you are not already a member. There are also some really good Atlanta-area investors on Bigger Pockets.

Here are a few tips for Bigger Pockets so you can get the most out of it:

Be sure to set up “keywords" for whatever type of investing you’re interested in with "Atlanta” obviously being the primary keyword.

Secondly, I try to read at least a blog per day, as well as listen to one podcast per week.

Lastly, try to get involved in the Bigger Pockets community. Don't be timid - share advice and ask questions!

Good luck. I hope to see you around Bigger Pockets as well as in the Atlanta-area market. I’m here if you have any questions!

Professional regards -

Andrew
