Newbie from Aurora Colorado!
Hi! I've been a member of Bigger Pockets for a couple months now, trying to absorb as much information as possible, and figure it's time to say hello!
I'm a 3rd gen Colorado native and so this is my home through and through! I run a consulting business for small businesses and entrepreneurs in the information technology industry, and want to also begin investing in RE.
I plan to start out slow and steady with wholesaling, get really good with that and build some working capital so I have a good foundation to then move into flipping and MAYBE eventually buy and holds. At this stage, that idea just doesn't hit home with me even though I know that's the recommended long-term wealth strategy. Maybe once I get going my perspective will change. :)
I look forward to building relationships and I am someone who loves to help others. So while I may not be able to give much yet, I'll give what I can!
Blessings!!

Wow! Thanks for the welcomes!
@Daniel Haberkost - I love the Springs. My husband, unfortunately is not a fan, so we moved. But I love it down there! As far as why I'm uncertain about owning rentals is because I haven't seen the logic. Everyone says the average income from each works out to be about $200/month. That's a lot of properties and what I perceive as a lot of headaches, even with a PM, to understand the value of it. I'm sure I'm missing something. :)
@Michael Glist - Nice! Thanks for the invite to reach out if needed.
@Dmitriy Fomichenko - Awesome tips to get started! Thanks!
@Jack Butala - I wish me much success too! haha... I hope you're safe with all the fires out your way. Just unfathomable!
Have a great rest of your week everyone! :)
