Newbie from Orlando, Florida
Hi everyone,
My name is Anthony, newbie to BP and the Real Estate world.
I've been interested in the industry for a long time and initially joined BP to get more insight on property appraising, as I'm contemplating pursing a career in that field. I've done my fair share of research on the subject but figured why not ask people in the community and get their perspective. While appraising is an area I've been most interested in lately, flipping homes and owning rental properties have always been a financial goal of mine as well.
Like stated from fellow newbie @Jean E. I'm looking to get started and any feed back would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Anthony

Thanks for the kind words. I've definitely notice the shift in the market. I used to live on the East side of Orlando and there were a lot of opportunities near the college, but like you said it's getting difficult to find a good deal.
