Starter in Twenty-Nine Palms

[Beresford Wesley]

Hello, my name Is Beresford Wesley, I am currently a United States Marine stationed in Twenty-Nine Palms California, my girlfriend and I got introduced to Real Estate Investing a little over a year ago through Fortune Builders and have been interested ever since. We started doing a lot of research and realized that we would like to start our first venture into REI with rental properties. I happened upon Bigger Pockets a couple of months ago and have been hooked on it, it's affordable compared to the $50k fortune Builders classes we originally wanted to start with, we have been listening to BP's podcasts and watching their YouTube videos and exploring their website. We plan on buying our first rental property by next year. I am now a pro-member and I'm making this post as a means of creating networking opportunities. I'm hoping to be able to attend real estate events as well as local meet-ups. Any advice will be greatly appreciated, feel free to reach out. Thank you.
