New So. Fla. investor (and title agent)
Hello all!
New BP member here looking to connect with other South Florida real estate investors and professionals.
I currently own two rental properties and looking for at least one more before the end of the year. My goal is to have at least 10 properties within the next 4 and 1/2 years. I got into real estate to diversify my investment strategy. I've learned a ton of information over the last 9 months just by listing to the BP podcast and doing a ton of reading.
If any member ever has a question about insurance claims or a closing, do not hesitate to reach out.

Hi Daniel, welcome to BP such an amazing resource. Great way to connect and network. That is a great goal to have 10 properties, are you looking primarily in South Florida?
Welcome to BP @Daniel Alvarez! It sounds like you are on the right track. Are your current rentals in Florida? Is that where you are looking to acquire more?
Wow! Fantastic! Look at you go @Daniel Alvarez ! Can't wait to read about more of your successes!
BP is THE place to be.

@Share Ross Thanks!
@Dan Barli yes, my properties are both in South Florida, Miami specifically. And yes, I'm looking to buy more in the area. Since this is a true side business for me and I don't want to leave my legal practice anytime soon, I'm going to focus on local properties.
Welcome to Bigger Pockets.
Hello & Welcome @Daniel Alvarez ! BP is definitely the place to be. Have you started attending any local meet ups?
@Autumn Alexander Not yet. It's my plan to start in the next month. Have you gone to them?
My business cards just came in the mail this past week...so I'm actually attending my first DREIA next Wednesday. I hope to see you around!
Here's a quick (print friendly) reference for Local Meet Ups I put together.
Hey Daniel Alvarez
Welcome to BP! As Autumn Alexander mentioned, you should definitely check out the local meet ups. There is one in little Havana monthly that pops up periodically on the forums, feel free to reach out if you can’t find the thread. Hope to see everyone at the next meet up
Happy investing!
Welcome, @Daniel Alvarez! Seems like your experience as a title agent will be a huge benefit as you continue on this journey - and you'll be a great addition to the forums with that expertise!
So glad you're already plugged into the podcast - it's been a huge source of education and inspiration for me and my husband in our REI careers.
Best of luck to you in achieving your goals and I look forward to following your journey!
