Hello BP from Las Vegas

Greetings everyone!

I'm Jason and I currently live in Las Vegas however I won't be investing here just yet. Sadly, my current job doesn't pay me enough to qualify for anything within the parameters of how I want to begin this wonderful journey into the world of real estate investing!

I was recently able to do a cash out refinance on my primary residence which will allow me to begin this journey. I'm thinking the best way for me to add to that cash flow is to flip a few properties first but it has been difficult to find anything in my home market. So I decided to look at my other home market, New Jersey (which is why my profile says I'm from there). I've seen some promising properties but have yet to be able to purchase one for a variety of reasons. 

I'm very willing to do this where ever I can afford to so I'd love to hear from some of you about your markets and if there is room for one more flipper there.

Thanks for reading! Speaking of reading, lots more for me to do around here so off I go!

@David Semer

Thanks for the welcome! I would love to join one of those REI groups but living out west and not being in NJ all the time could be a bit problematic! I could perhaps schedule a trip back around the same time as a meeting if I had enough notice. I'll keep my eye out on the boards for the next meeting and if you hear of one, please do let me know.

@Dmitriy Fomichenko

Thanks for the welcome and I can't wait meet new friends and learn as much as I can about the various aspects of real estate. 

@Larry Fried

Thanks for the welcome and I have already been reading the ultimate beginners guide. I have yet to set up the keyword alerts but I most certainly will.

I grew up in Toms River and my parents still call it home. Well worth a visit someday!

@James Wise

Thanks for the welcome! 

I have not looked into out of state rental ownership as of yet. Any information you can share would be appreciated.

Flipping just seems to me the best way to build upon what I currently have so that I can explore other options within the real estate investing world. I have other goals in mind but one step at a time!
