Hailing from Sacramento, CA
Hello BP!
Kirsten from Sacramento, CA here. I've been listening to the BP podcasts and reading various blogs and forums, so I decided it was about time I introduced myself properly.
I am just beginning to take action on a dream I've had for a very long time. I have always loved design, architecture and the idea of making old things beautiful. This love of design took me down a few different paths, to the one I am currently on - graphic designer. However, the urge to invest, flip, wholesale, buy and hold, has been there waiting for its glory day.
I was born and raised in Carmichael, CA so I am very familiar with the nuance and intricacies of this area. I love looking at homes (especially Mid Century Modern homes!) and thinking of ways to refresh them while keeping the bones of the home intact.
I've read most of Rick Villani and Clay Davis' FLIP book, quite a few BP blogs, J Scott's 1-2-3 Flip site - like, the whole thing! and the BP Beginner's Guide. I am currently in Real Estate Principles - the first of 3 courses required to sit for the CalBRE - and excited to add that to my tool box.
I'd love to connect with other investors in the Sacramento area. I'm looking forward to attending some upcoming REIA meet ups and a few others I've found on Meetup.
Thanks!
Kirsten
