New investor saying, "Hi"
Hi all. I've been trading options for years and and expanding into real estate. I found this forum through a co-worker and it has been gold so far!
The business model is three-fold: Fix-flips, Rentals and note investing.
I got burned pretty hard years ago so I have been hesitant to re-enter the real estate realm. I have since identified my mistakes thanks to Richdad and Biggerpockets so here we go!
My motto has always been, "Learn the game and play aggressively".... so that's what I am doing. :) I am looking forward to all the knowledge in these forums.
