Beginner in Dallas Are

[Kirk Norris]

Hello all! I'm Kirk and I'm a college student in the Dallas area. Real estate investing is something that I've watched multiple people around me grow successful from and I've always had such a great interest in it. After joining the BP community seeking out all the information I can, I know this is something that I want to do. As a graduating senior in college, I'm not sure of where to start my investing journey as I am originally from the Columbus, Oh area. If anyone in Dallas is looking for somebody to mentor, work with, or simply meet for coffee, I'm your guy! Just thought I'd throw that out there! Thanks for welcoming me into the community! Kirk

Welcome to Dallas Kirk Norris!

It's a hot market here in Dallas. Not to dissuade you or anything it's still a good market to be in long term. I guess that depends on your goals and how much time you're willing to put in. For a young professional getting started is one of the most challenging moments I had to encounter. Being young myself, I'm currently working with a broker to pursue a career in property management to gain experience. With the experience gained you can use that as a powerful leverage in building your own book of business and persuading potential cliente. Money isn't nearly as important since you're starting out. But I guess it depends on how ambitious and determined one is. Really recommend local meet ups and expressing your interest through particular real estate companies (cold calling) if you're looking to go all the way in.
