Hi everyone my name is Ree I am from Columbus, Ohio. I have been reading books about real estate investing. My goals are not limited right now. I'm trying to find my niche. I have no real estate back ground but understand it is one way to become financially free. I'm looking for a mentor and it to possibly grow into a friendship/partnership. Right now I have a list of houses and don't know what to do with them. I've read so much information and now I'm frozen at taking action. I believe the hardest part right now is implementing what I've read and knowing what to say when speaking to owners and potential buyers. I look forward to the great responses. I've already read some forums and will start listening to some podcast. Thanks everyone for the help and I'm glad this community has been created. I'm excited to get started on my real estate investing.
