Brand New investor Headed to the Phoenix Market!

[Lindsay Johnson]

Hi All!

I am a newby to the real estate world! Getting ready to move back to Phoenix after being in Yuma, Arizona for a few years with my current company. My background is in Construction Management, but I recently grew an incredible interest in real estate investment and am looking forward to learning more about it.  My goal is simple - get to a point where I can quit my job and become an investor/house flipper full time. I am extremely new to the industry, and would happily take any advice from the more experienced folks out there who are willing! I am a harder worker and am ready and excited to do whatever it takes to make it in the industry!

@Lindsay Johnson there are no limits in real estate, only those limits that you place on yourself. Three key elements in your journey to educate yourself in real estate:

1. BIGGERPOCKETS - but you know this already because you are here, take advantage of all the free information BP offers, from books, podcasts, forums, local events, webinars and networking, just to name a few. 

2. READ - following the above you will quickly come to realize that there are a good 10-20 must read books out there dealing in various real estate subjects. Reading is the most cost-effective way to educate yourself and get all your basics in place. BP has published some excellent books in this arena. 

3. PODCASTS - take of advantage of the BP podcast, but also the numerous other podcasts out there that will help you formulate plan and help get your first deal.

Enjoy and the best of luck you!
