New Investor in Southeast Pennsylvania (Berks County)

[Steve Oxenreider]

Hello BP,

Long time listener, first time caller. I've been around BP for a while now, haven't posted much and haven't been particularly active here or in real estate. What better time than now to change that, right?

I'm 32, married, and have 3 sons. I've had an interest in real estate since I was in high school, after I read Rich Dad Poor Dad (sound familiar?). I've revisited real estate many times over the years but never seriously pursued it.

I'm interested in networking with other investors, both online and in my local area (Reading, PA area and the surrounding counties of Lancaster, Lebanon, and Montgomery). To that end, I'd love to hear some southeastern PA investors' experiences with contractors, hard money lenders, agents, attorneys, etc. 

My plan for my business is to get a few flips and wholesales under my belt and then start moving into buy and hold. I'm still in the early stages of seeking out deals in my local area, driving for dollars, direct mail marketing, etc.

Welcome to the site. You've found the best community for Real Estate. I'd recommend using a D4d app and door knocking/cold calling. You'd be surprised just how fast you may get that first deal under your belt!
