Newbie Intro

[Lisa Bryant]

I am new to BP and new to Real Estate. I am known for my creative abilities and now, God has given me something else, to learn, and prayerfully, do well in it. I am interested in Wholesaling and have taken the steps to start it as a business. My fascination in Real Estate, started years ago, as I worked with my clients helping them beautify, their living space.

Hello and welcome to BP! It sounds like you have got good experience. Wholesaling is a hard place to start but is very good experience for you. Owner financing is the way to go. " House Hacking" is also a possible way to go because you can get financing at a low down payment and they can even loan you the repair expense. If you get interested in a vacant property you can find the owner with a tax assessor. Just do what you like. Get insurance right after you close to protect yourself. You can start off with an FHA conventional loan and put down more money and have more equity. Before you start investing you may want to find a good Team that will support you. Team members that are usually made up of Attornies, Real Estate Agents, CPA's (or accountants), Inspectors, and General Contractors.

I am 59 years old and I found BP about 7 months ago and I am still trying to decide what to do.  I went to college, which is not mandatory, and I got a business degree that emphasized real estate.  Since I was in Texas I was able to get a broker license without having to take anything extra.  I kept that license for about 30 years.  I did close a few deals for other people.  My father has been in real estate sales for about 40 years and he has taught me a little bit.  If you think that I can help you please contact me through BP at any time. Good luck!
