Hello BP community!  Found this site by listening to the BP podcasts and getting ahold of and reading 2 of Brandon Turner's books.  Fantastic info on this site.  I'm so blessed to have found this community at this point in my real estate investing journey!

    Hey Kurt!
    I'm also new to BP, and just getting started in the Dayton, OH area. Just completed my first duplex deal. I'm not a wealth of knowledge (yet) but I'm more than happy to help in anyway I can.

     welcome to the forums! I saw you are in Lancaster, are you considering investing locally or taking the plunge up here to Columbus?

    @Robert Ellis I am currently looking to invest in Lancaster because its local and I'm familiar with the area.  However, I'm open to going towards Columbus.
