NEWBIE from Atlanta, GA (By way of Pine Bluff, Arkansas)
Hi guys!
My name is Whitney Payton and I am completely new to the wonderful world of investing. I am 28 years old and I currently reside in Atlanta, Georgia. I have been here for about 10 years, but I am originally from Arkansas. I work as an Assistant Director of Admissions and Professor and I recently just finished up my Doctoral studies. I am looking to learn about real estate investing and networking with investors in my area. I am specifically interested in learning to flip homes and how to acquire rental property. I am pretty sound financially, but I know that I could be doing more to see my money grow for the future.
I look forward to learning from you all and for this new chapter of life! :)
