Determined New Member in San Diego
Hello BP Community,
My name is Kyle; I am 28 years old, living in San Diego, originally from Western Massachusetts and work full time as a sales rep for a roofing supply company. I was lucky to have stumbled upon the BiggerPockets Podcast and have been addicted to developing my RE knowledge ever since.
As of now I have no real estate background besides the BP podcasts I listen to daily.
My real estate goals are to start Wholesaling in San Diego, using those earnings to purchase a buy and hold property/house hack. I want to continue to accumulate properties that cash flow (open to looking in different regions, especially Western Mass), begin flipping, and be open minded to all opportunities to build a fluid RE business. The ultimate goal is to build enough passive income so I can leave my current job at some point, IF I choose to.
My immediate goal is to find someone to talk real estate, build a relationship and network with in San Diego (I live in Pacific Beach but travel all over the county for work). Currently, I am focusing on a marketing plan to begin Wholesaling but could use some guidance on direct mail campaigns, basic systems to have in place, which neighborhoods/towns to target,...everything with getting the ball rolling.
I want to start building wealth. Working hard for someone else's bottom line will not get me to where I want to be financially. I am ready to learn and take action.
Please feel free to each out, I look forward to meeting you.
Kyle
