New to Bigger Pockets - Los Angeles

[Roman Rida]

Hi Bigger Pockets Team! My name is Roman and I am an Account Executive at a cyber security software company. I am originally from Vancouver Canada, and recently moved to Los Angeles to grow my career. I am newbie when it comes to REI, however I am looking to jump in full force and change this as quickly as possible! I have a goal of buying five properties in the next 12 months, out of state, and looking to learn how to better analyze markets, deals, and overall investment opportunities. I am mostly interested in buy and hold rental properties and I am looking forward to building partnerships with Real Estate Agents, Property Managers, Lenders, Contractors, and Wholesalers in Alabama, Indiana, Missouri and Texas. I am 32, have great credit, and have been fortunate enough to accumulate some capital to invest with and I want to make sure I do it right! I have read a few of the Bigger Pockets recommended books, listened to a few podcasts, and I feel ready to take the next step, whatever that is.

I welcome and appreciate any guidance on where to get started, tools to analyze deals, connections, and anything that could help me grow my career, while offering some value back to you guys!

Looking forward to connecting!

Roman
