Newb REI in York, PA

[Paul Duke]

Hello everyone!

I'm a newbie REI in the York PA area originally from Baltimore, MD. I currently work in the IT field and am eagerly looking to start investing part-time and eventually taking it full time and entering into the commercial arena. I'm looking for honest and trustworthy brokers, agents, and professionals in the area that we can prosper together and create lasting business partnerships. (A bit sappy, I know!! Lol)

I have not completed any deals as of yet, and have no prospects as I am still looking to build my foundational resources. I have always been interested in RE but thought that it took a lot of money to get started. I recently attended a Rich Dad weekend seminar and found otherwise and have been on the hunt to get started since.

My goals are to begin with Wholesaling to create immediate cash to pay down some personal debts and create cash reserves for investing. I've also thought about and am beginning to read up on Lease Options so that I can create immediate cash AND still hold the property for cashflow. My next steps are to buy and hold properties for cash flow to Financial Freedom and move into Commercial Investments.

Since the seminar, I've been looking to find out as much I can find about REI since I couldn't afford the advanced classes, which is how I found this site. So far it has already been a great help in many respects.
