Huntsville, Alabama newbie on the move

[Dave Gibson]

BiggerPockets is the place to be.....what a great site. Sooooo much info, soooo many great topics and input from folks. I look forward to being active on this site.....

Anyways, REI is my passion. It's taken four long years for me to get out there and start doing it. We have a good, dedicated team in place (contractor, attorney, mortgage officer, home stager) and we're in a growing city that has survived the real estate downfall. And now a growing base of investors that see the potential are snapping up properties and land. Just recently received my RE license. Things are beginning to fall in place.

Cooperative assignments and wholesaling will be our initial focus to build cash reserves....then we'll move to land contracts and rehabbing.

Thanks everyone......wish everyone the best in their ventures. I'm always open to potentials mentors and partnerships.

Welcome to BP, Dave.

Sounds like you are getting ready to jump into wholesaling. Glad that you found the site. You'll find lots of useful information on wholesaling and other investing techniques.

I assume you are putting a buyer's list together and have some idea what your potential buyers want.

Happy investing. Look forward to hearing about your experiences.

Welcome to BP Nation Dave,
ask away.

[Dave Gibson]

Thanks Will and Charles. I read posting from the two of you for some time now. You guys give good advice and I (as I'm sure many others) appreciate the fact that you take the time to teach others your experiences and attempt to guide folks in the right direction. You guys are great......

Hi Dave, I am from Huntsville as well and new to this site. I also checked your website out, and it looks good.

I don't know all the abbreviations of real estate, but I do know of a home that you might be interested in to buy.

I don't want to break any forum rules here, and maybe should send this to you in private mail. Anyway, I would be happy to help you with your goals. I do not expect anything in return.

Welcome, Dave!

Sounds like you've done your homework and have developed a good business plan and team. If you're actively working as a Real Estate Agent, you may run into short sales. You may be interested in referring them. It's a great way to gain knowledge and experience while making money you can use for investing! Let me know if I can help.
