23 yr old investor looking to connect in Atlanta area!

Hello there!

My name is Bryan, and I'm a 23 year old newbie investor from Atlanta, GA. I graduated in 2018 with BBA in Finance from Georgia Southern and I currently work as an Analyst at consulting firm. I'm excited to get the ball rolling on my REI career, and I actually had the opportunity to buy my first property with an FHA loan in October of 2019, where I am currently house hacking. I have hopes to scale-up and buy more properties to have a rental portfolio and inevitably retire by 30. My research has currently been mostly in NW and West Atlanta, but I'm open to hearing and learning about others.

My goal of utilizing BP is to build a network and find like-minded individuals who I can share ideas with, and also to learn more about how to be successful in this industry. I'd also be open to the idea of a partnership.

I look forward to connect with those who’d like. Have an awesome week, and stay healthy.

Thanks,

Bryan

    Welcome to BiggerPockets! You came to the right place to learn more about real estate and connect with other motivated investors. BP is full of great content, so I strongly recommend you to have a look at the following resources:

    1. Start by reading the Ultimate Real Estate Investing Guide: https://www.biggerpockets.com/guides/ultimate-real-estate-investing-guide/introduction

    2. Then check out other online guides available here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/guides

    3. Have a look at BP's blog where new articles are published every day: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog

    4. If you wish to network or ask specific questions about your local market, you can go to your local real estate forum and discuss with investors from your area: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/86-local-real-estate-networking

    5. Or you can directly meet them by registering to real estate events around you: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-events-and-happenings

    Hey @Bryan Henry, welcome to the BP community man!

    Nice job on that first house hack - you're way already ahead of most! And that analytical mind should serve you well in the world of REI.

    What is your plan to scale-up and retire by 30? Is it something like what @Brandon Turner suggests in "7 Years to 7 Figure Wealth" or do you have another plan? If you have no plan and only a hope you will definitely want to sit down this weekend and map out a path, something to keep you focused. A great way to start this is with a vision. Where do you want to at 30? What do you want to be doing? With who? Finally, how much monthly cash flow will you need to make this happen? Then work backwards to figure out how you will get there. Obviously this will change as you go along, especially with so much uncertainty right now, but this process is still vital.

    Other than that, I think you're on the right track man. I see you're signed up for the Invest Now virtual meetup tonight so great start there. And just keep networking hard here on BP and add value wherever you can.

    Feel free to reach out to me anytime you have questions or just want to chat!

    Hey @Bryan Henry. Welcome in, and congratulations on your first house hack! I'm also a newbie investor, focusing on the Gwinnett/Cobb areas. I second Bill Hampton's suggestion of joining a REIA - a great source for networking and learning. There are also some really great facebook groups with active members bouncing ideas off of each other. Would love to connect!
