New San Antonio TX Investor

Hey All, 

I'm just getting going as an investor here in San Antonio TX. I have a ton of life experience in construction, real estate, and business consulting but I'm now moving forward with my dream to both flip and buy-and-hold residential properties. It feels like all of my life experience and relationships have culminated to this exact moment. 

I have spent the last 4 months digesting every real estate book I could get my hands on, listening to Bigger Pockets podcasts, and reaching out to friends in the business. I have my first major postcard campaign going out next week to market for motivated sellers and this week I'm closing on my first flip property. In addition to setting up my new LLC (Safe Equity LLC), I'm building a great team of experienced people to guide me in areas where I am weak (which is a lot at this point! :) ).

So far, Bigger Pockets has been an incredible resource for me. In many ways, the podcast has provided me with more mentors than I could have met if I had spent my whole life in this business. I look forward to connecting with you and I hope I can pay it forward as I grow in this business. 

Thanks! 
Ben Rodrigue

Welcome to the wonderful world of Real Estate Investing. There are several networking groups that can help you build your team and learn about the market. Good luck and let me know if you get too many deals to handle from that postcard campaign!
