New Member from South Shore of Massachusetts

Hi, I'm a new member to BP and live in the South Shore of Massachusetts. My investment experience so far has consisted of a fixer upper I bought with a family member in 2006 and sold 2 years later. I'm looking to get back into the business with the buy and hold strategy within Mass. Currently I'm educating myself through books and BP. 

I would love to make new contacts with other BP members in my area to talk strategy within our expensive RE market

@Marc Biviano

Welcome!  I live down in Westport.  It's great to have you on BP.  Below is what I send to most new people from Mass.

I am also a new to this world so I will share with you what I am doing to get myself educated:

  • 1)Go pro – No I don’t work for BP, but you get the tools you absolutely need to be successful as a pro member hands down.
  • 2)Listen to every single BP pod cast. So far I am about 110 in and it is exactly the education you need. I listen to them in order from newest to oldest regardless of the topic so I can learn about all angles of this business. It is truly amazing what you can pick up.
  • 3)Take action. Get a goal and go make it happen. Without it you are guaranteed to never make it happen.
  • 4)Don’t take it too seriously – it’s a lot to lean and that is why people never really get in to it.

Good luck!

Matt
