New to the BP site!
Hello BP community!
I decided last week that I wanted financial freedom and started my path on the road that is RE. Right now the road is dark and my GPS is always recalculating! However, I am determined to find my way. As I sit here with 4 books I just ordered, looking for REIA meetings, and enjoying the great information on BP, I'm certain the ride will become much smoother. I'm in the DC Metro area and hope to start investing in about 6 months or so. Thanks for the great content that you guys continue to post. It really helps and inspires a newbie like myself!
