New to BP From Missouri/Arkansas

Hello!

Newbie here from Columbia, MO; but currently living in Little Rock, AR. A little about me...I'm 25 years young, born and raised in central Missouri. I got my degree from the University of Missouri in Atmospheric Science. Throughout college I always had 2-3 jobs, anything from working in the Insurance field, to bartending (what can I say, I like to keep busy!). While getting my degree I was also in Air Force ROTC to fulfill my goal of becoming an Officer in the USAF. Well, upon graduating I got my first base assignment to Little Rock; and I've been here for about a year and a half now. I am currently an Aircraft Maintenance Officer as a career broadening, but will be switching over to Acquisitions/Contracting in a little over a year.

Now that that's out of the way.....

I first found out about BP through the BP Podcast that I happened to stumble upon one day while looking for a REI Podcast to keep me busy on my 6 hour commute from AR-->MO.....ever since then I've been hooked! I've always been interested in REI, but really got serious about it about a year ago.

One of my favorite quotes is "Learning leads to action; action leads to success," well, right now I am in the Learning phase.

I am overall interested in learning more about long-term rentals, buying my first property, and (most importantly) finding other local RE investors to network with.

Looking forward to immersing myself in this community and meeting other likeminded individuals!

-Ryan

Hi Ryan.

There is a REIA meeting tonight in Little Rock that you might find interest in attending. Details can be found at CARREIA.com

First time visit is free. Speaker will be talking on some key topics that you will remember from the podcasts. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you.
