Hi Everyone - I Velina Davidson and am new. This is my first time on BP although I've listened to a bunch of podcasts. My husband, Dave, and I love the site and it's just what we've been looking for. We are from Keller Texas which is between Dallas and Ft. Worth, more on the Ft. Worth side. We've got two rent houses (that were our houses before we got married) and one living residence. About 3 years ago a lightbulb went off in my head that real estate is the way to go. I realized that I can get renters to pay off my house and that I will have an extra house when I retire if all goes well. Then about 6 months ago a couple friends became realtors and asked my husband and I to join their team. We just passed the test. I never thought I wanted to be a realtor but I can see how it can be a benefit as an investor - so here we are. We have our license but still haven't gotten everything else we need to show or go look houses yet. In the past few months we've started listening to BP podcasts and we realize how much we don't know. It's overwhelming! I had no idea how unprepared we were. I think we are ready to get another house but now that we know better we hope we can go about it a little smarter. But we have to create a plan, make an exit strategy and run the numbers - all things we never did before. Anyway - that's our story. We are hoping to meet others in the area. My husband got in touch with a local meetup so we will go to the next one and start meeting like minded people. Looking forward to it.
