New member in the Oklahoma City,OK area.

[Quintin Jones]

My name is Quintin Jones current tattoo artist in Midwest City, OK. Originally from Oklahoma City just moved back home about 4 months ago from Atlanta.

I do not have any background or experience in Real Estate but some experience in insurance, which I still currently hold licenses for Life/Health and Property & Casualty in the state of Georgia. 

My interest in Real Estate is to learn General Investing, Low or No Money Down Investing, Flipping and Multifamily. Currently reading the Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing, listening to the BiggerPockets podcast and watching the modules in my spare time to get some insight on the terminology and a better understanding.   

Short-term goal is to acquire my first investment or property, and long-term is to use Real Estate investing as a retirement vehicle.
