[Timothy D. Roberts]

Hello BP community! It’s an honor and privilege to have been introduced to such a motivated bevy of individuals involved in real estate. My name is Tim Roberts. I am 24 years old and located West Chester, PA. I’m lucky to call this part of the world Home. I’ve always considered where I live to be rented. Initially living with my parents in exchange for chores , to later renting from various landlords around my hometown. Owning something like a house was something for experienced, weathered people who had been handed a “how-to” book the day they left there parents house. I’ve learned (to my dismay) that my thoughts weren’t grounded in anything real, other than a generational consensus. A lifelong friend of mine was unable to make lunch about 2 months ago. When I asked him why, he told me he was “closing on a house he just bought.” That first associative barrier was torn to the ground. I reached out to a friend of mine who I have seen proactive about owning and selling real estate around the same age as me. He pointed me to this App, told me to poke around, and I’ve been using this forum along with Podcasts and books associated with it to wrap my head around this idea. I have also began to sit down with people I know around the area involved in different aspects of real estate to start a chain of communication. I’m writing this post today because I have to start somewhere. While I want to learn everything I can, I do not want to over consume and scare myself away. I have a broad list of goals and break it down day by day to assess where my feet need to move next(today’s step forward includes the words you’re reading right now.) I purchased the 90 days of intention book and plan to utilize all the tools it comes with. I know I am capable of achieving my goals and I look forward to learning from the group conscience moving forward. Thanks for reading and I look forward to the future of this community!
