First time home buyer in Woodstock, Georgia. Hold interest

[Chris Reel]

Hello,

My name is Chris Reel, a 25 year old beginner. My current roommate and partner are from Woodstock Georgia, and we are working to get into our first home in the next few months. We are looking for a local meet up to learn as much as possible about our area.

My partner and I have spent many hours researching the buy and hold process. We are now seeking a home, with the intent to live in it for a few years as we grow and develop. Over that time we intended to renovate or repair the home to rent out when we are ready to move into anothe property, then repeat this process. We are both rookies, with little experience in real estate, but a firey passion to learn. Our experience as competitive gymnastics coaches has taught us to be persistent and focused in our pursuits. 

We hope to meet like minded people in our area and help in exchange for some experience.
