Colorado Newbie Checking in

[Andrea Tinney]

Hello everyone!

I am new (obviously) and looking to get involved in real estate investing as I'm sure you could guess. In particular, I think I am most interested in fix & flip or buy and hold, but for the moment I am more focused on researching and educating myself so I can better determine what is the best fit for me.

When I say that I am a newbie at this, I very much mean it. My real estate experience is limited to having purchased a condo in Houston that I lived in for 6 years and fixed up/updated a bit toward the end of my tenure there. I haven't sold it yet as the last project is currently incomplete, but I will have that taken care of in the coming months to free me of that tie and let me really delve into real estate here in Colorado. I realize that I could do something here while I still have that property, but personally I think that would be a bad idea for me. For me, it would be better to actually complete the project and get that property sold before allowing myself something new. As I get more experience, maybe multi-tasking projects will work for me, but I have to start small and build up to that.

I look forward to making connections and making use of the vast knowledge base of BiggerPockets and its community.

Welcome Andrea. One of the quickest ways to learn is coming to a meetup. Next Denver one is April 4th.
