Introductions: The New Guy
Greetings and hello Bigger Pockets Community. My name is Joe Colling. I am new to the Bigger Pockets community and therefore thought it ethical to introduce myself.
Quick Summary:
I am a private investor with an interest in residential homes (distressed and non-distressed). I started investing earlier this year. I am enjoying the journey of Real Estate Investing; it becomes more appealing to me everyday. I am for the first time in my life ENJOYING MY WORK! How many people can say that in our "worker bee" society of 9-5ers who hate their jobs, bosses, etc.?
On a brighter note, I am currently looking to make connections with private lenders, real estate agents, and real estate investors in Texas (my home state). From San Antonio to Austin, I invest in real estate. I don't do rentals at this time - only straight wholesaling.
I have subscribed to the Bigger Pockets Youtube channel and spent the last few hours reading many articles found on this site. So far, I like the info and the community seems helpful from a glance...Although, this is my first post so we'll see how many people take offense to my super loooong post, here. :)
I'm hoping to make valuable connections that not only serve my business needs but perhaps blossom into a "friend" relationship as well. My ultimate goal is to develop a small team of trustworthy SUPER-HERO like connections that can help my business grow. I like people who are similar to me: I am a go-getter and I like to make deals happen. If your a part-timer or don't work very hard, then we probably would not work well together. If you would like to hook up with me on LinkedIn or Facebook, send me a PM. I accept all and judge none. :)
Okay, so this is the end of my summary. I hope you enjoyed reading about me and thanks for your time. I appreciate it because I know how important time is. Anyway, It is a pleasure to meet you all here at the Bigger Pockets community! Thank you. :)

Welcome! We are buying in SA. Let me know if you need buyers.
This is a good community. I doubt anyone will mind a long post. It is good of you to introduce yourself.
Best of luck!
