New to Real Estate Investing

[Steve Velez]

Hey BP! I'm new to BP and I have been reading, researching, and learning how to get into real estate investment for about 9 months now. I'm focused on getting 1 deal done this year as a buy and hold strategy. I live In NY and Ive been primarily interested out of state and I chose the Orlando market.  This is really just my intro to the community. If anyone has any guidance, advice, or tips I'm open to learn.  I've been working to build my real estate network in the tri state area and Florida with real estate agents, lawyers, property management, contractors, etc so hopefully I'll be able to help others with my network. Looking forward to learning from this great community.

@Steve Velez If you're looking to invest out of state, you may want to connect with @Ali Boone. She does this and has written extensively on the topic for the BP blog. I'm sure she'll be happy to answer any questions you have about out of state investing. Welcome to BP!
