New Member In Boone NC
Hi, I'm Jordan Eggen. I moved to Boone NC in June of 2015 to pursue a career with The MoutnainTimes as a marketing consultant. A family member, who has a few rental properties, turned me onto this site last weekend. I'm currently focused on self educating, learning my surrounding markets and ultimately owning/flipping/renting properties. My plan is to purchase my first property when my lease is up in June of 2016. Is this too ambitious? I'm reading the UBG currently and listening to the BP podcast daily. I think a multi family home may be the best starting point for me. I'm thankful to be here and hope to hear from other members soon. Please feel free to reach out, especially if you are in my area. I'm completely new to the beast of real estate investing and any pointers will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jordan

@Jordan Eggenwelcome to BP! Your plan is ambitious for some people and not ambitious for others...it just depends on how you prioritize it in your life. I'd continue to listen to the podcasts and stay involved in the forums too.
