[Raymond Tucker]

Hello BP community. My name is Raymond. I'm very excited and motivated to get my real estate investing career started. I am eager to learn as much as possible, especially from seasoned investors in my area. My goal is to do small flips and scale into rental properties. (1-4 door).Im going to attend real estate school in fall. I want to be my own buy/sell agent as well as network with other agents. I'm a firm believer that networking leads to success.

Hello and welcome, @Raymond Tucker!

Make sure to listen to as many podcasts as you can, and follow along and interact on here as you listen to other investors. There's also a local meetup the last Thursday of every month. If you setup a keyword alert for "Raleigh," you'll get notified of the meetup announcement, as well as any other forum posts in the area. (There's also a suburb of Memphis, TN called Raleigh, that triggers the alert sometimes.)

I'm also an agent in the Triangle. It's how I got my start, and I still practice today. It's my "day job" as I learn investing. Let me know if you have any questions about getting your license or joining a firm. I'm glad to help!

Looking forward to hearing of your success!
