First Post Coming From Memphis TN. (Cordova)

[Tre Ballard]

Hi BP, 

Let me start by saying I'm new to posting, but not to BP or investing. I've been a ghost and soaking up as much as possible from the BP community for well over a year now & can attribute the success I've had in REI to it. I guess this is an intro & a success story all wrapped into one. Before even joining BP I connected with a member I seen post a lot & she told me to write my goals down. I wanted to get started wholesaling & have at least my first deal closed within the first 6 months of starting. I'm glad to say that I accomplished that short term goal & because of it, I was able to acquire my 2nd & 3rd deals, which pushed me to my second goal of closing 3 deals in my first year of investing. This itself is a testament of building relationships in this business because the 2nd & 3rd deals were a result of the investor I worked with liking how I ran my business. I'm blessed and enjoying the journey. I'm evolving.

So for the last few months I've switched my focus to learning how to Fix & Flip and I would love to pick the brain of experienced rehabbers who have found success in my area (Memphis, Cordova, or Tennessee in general). I know Memphis is primarily a rental market, BUT it's also a buyers' market & I've come across some great properties with outstanding potential in the Cordova area. I hope to establish some long-lasting and highly profitable relationships with my fellow BPers and hope to connect with you guys soon. Happy  Investing!
