Greetings! New member from Australia

Hey all, My name is Cody, and I am a new member on this site, I was referred to BP from a friend, and I can say I'm very impressed. It's amazing how pro investors are just happy to help people that are just starting out, and even help other investors (new or old) find and close deals. I am truly blown away. As a newbie I would like to say thanks to everyone for The helpful information. Getting on with my introduction,  I am new to this game, and I must say I'm addicted already. I'm just about in the position to start finding deals, I would say a location, but honestly I'm from Australia, and although one day I want to permanently move and get residency into your great country the United States of America, it just hasn't happened yet. So anyway I'm 20 years old, and I want to get serious with investing in buy and holds. I know it's a really big ask, but I'm wondering if anyone would be able to mentor me? I'm not asking for anyone to catch the fish for me, I just want to learn how to fish. I look forward too your replies, even just feedback on my introduction would be appreciated, as I've never done this before would be highly appreciated,

Thanks,

Cody Smith

Hey Cody, 

Welcome to BP. That is awesome that you are getting started at such a young age. I actually spent almost a year in Australia when I was in my 20's. Pretty much drove the entire perimeter of the country. I've traveled pretty extensively and would say Australia is up there for me. 

I have over 12 years experience rehabbing, wholesaling, buy and hold, as well as a licensed broker.

If I can be of service in any way, let me know if I can help you. 

Cheers,

Joe
