Hello BiggerPockets Community! I am a Kansas City local and am new to real estate. I am excited to be here! I have been interested in real estate for several years when I saw my dad doing it. However, a couple months ago I was talking with some friends from out of state and was hearing all they were doing in flipping and renting, and I decided to go for it. They told me about BiggerPockets, so I started listening to the podcasts on my drive to and from work (I work at an Amazon warehouse currently). Right now, I am working on obtaining my MO (and then KS) Real Estate license, reading tons of books (I have a very long book list), listening to the podcast, doing some online real estate investing training, and doing lots of my own research. I am looking to start with some flips and then get into rentals as well. 

I look forward to learning from y'all! I am looking to get to know local investors, agents, etc... so please reach out!

@Alex Olson Thank you! I am hoping to go with Platinum Realty, but may have to start somewhere else to gain some experience first. Do you have any advice on what agency I should go with?
