Very new, want to learn

[Cynthia Walker]

My name is Cindy, and I'm very new to real estate investing. I've just started working with a mentor who told me this site was a great resource to connect with others so I could grow, learn, and even help others in real estate. I'm living in North Central Texas, and am interested in the Texoma area as well as the DFW metroplex. I've been interested in the idea of rental property for a number of years but never had the courage to try. I'm just looking to connect with people who can help me learn, encourage me to dream big and actually take steps to realize those dreams, and also help others in any way a newbie can help.

Any ideas or criticisms are welcome, and I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read this.

Welcome @Cynthia Walker! Kudos to you for building that courage to try this out. 

Investing in real estate can be very daunting, and education is so important.  The webinars and blog posts on this website are very educational and help a lot. I also highly recommend the BP podcasts - they give great pieces of advice on various topics, as well as help you familiarize yourself with the language/terminology/process of investing.  They also can be very inspirational for you as a listener, hearing stories of people earning millions, many of which started just as you are now!

You've already taken that first step, so keep it up! Looking forward to hearing of your successes.
