Hello and welcome to BP! You were thinking right. Location is probably number one. Try to find a deal that is close to downtown Dallas. Pick a market and learn about it as much as you can. Growing population and diversity is important. Find a group of Team members you know are experienced and trustworthy. I am from and was raised in Dallas. I am 59 years old now and I still am learning. I found BP about 6 months ago. I got a college degree in business with an emphasis in real estate. That same year that I graduated, 1980, I got a broker license. I had that license for over 30 years. I had to take a refresher couse every 2 years. I did a few deals for other people. Regardless of what's i got i felt more comfortable in the construction business. I have been in the construction business since i was 17. My father was in the real estate business for about 40 years and I learned a Little from him. If you think I can help you please contact me at any time. Good luck!
