About to take the first steps.

Hello Everyone,

 A little bout myself... I'm originally from San Jose, CA and now live in Bakersfield, CA. I have traveled through many areas on the globe while in the Marine Corps, Semper Fi:) Any who, after the service I jumped into Real Estate, first as a Realtor then as a full time Mortgage Loan Officer... Did I mention this was during the best times in the Real Estate Bizz 2007-2010, YAY! Bad time, I know.

As a result, I left the business in 2010, but began savings my pennies. I always tell myself "I should have been an investor."

So here I am ready to take the next steps to create some passive income...

I am California, so its a little bit more pricey than other areas of the country; therefore, I am open to buy properties out of state i,e., San Antonio, Tx, Phoenix, Az, or some areas of the Mid West.

I've been diving into the BP forums for a while, but just now ready to start investing.

Thanks guys

Izzy

Hi Izzy,

I too am a California investor, from NorCal but currently living in Southern California! I am also looking to invest in the Midwest, particularly Memphis TN, and Dallas TX. If you would like to connect, I would be happy to talk to you more! I hope you find what you're looking for in BP!
