Newbie in Lynchburg, VA

[Robert Fisher]

Hey BP, I am brand new to both BiggerPockets and real estate investing in general. I’ve done some research, read some books, took an online training course (wish I had found BP before spending the money on all of that), but have yet to make my first deal. I’m a work-from-home-Dad and I take care of our 1 year old during the day while my wife is at work and then I run my drafting and design during naptime and at night. Unfortunately, that has been contributing to the household income as much as I’d like so I’ve started looking into what my dad used to build wealth and support his retirement - real estate investing. I wish I would’ve found this place before investing time and money into other research, books and courses. But I’m here now and looking to get started soon
