Knowledge thirsty newbie in NE Atlanta (Norcross), GA
Hello BP community!!!!
I am a new investor, with very little experience. My very limited REI experience comes from owning a house in NE Atlanta (read Norcross) GA, and renting rooms to my college friends (I just graduated from Georgia Tech, soooo .... go jackets!!!).
Good news is that for what I hear, the Bigger Pockets forum is the place to learn about REI! I found out about BP literally by punching "best real estate books" in Google. That took me to Brandon's "real estate in your twenties" website and finally here. I'm interested in wholesaling and buy and hold investments.
I am originally from Medellin, Colombia (so of course I enjoy soccer) and recently decided to learn how to play the electric bass .... making very slow progress with that endeavor, but having fun with it.
Look forward to meeting other investors in the area and learning about REI!!!!!

Welcome to BP!! @Sebastian. Smart move with renting rooms to college buddies. Sounds like a REI plan that can cash flow well.
