New to REI and BiggerPockets!

[Joe Schriever]

Greetings! I am new to BiggerPockets and new to real estate investing. I haven't done any deals yet (only my primary residence, which I'm considering converting to my first rental). I am currently an IT consultant and work from home, so I have a bit of flexibility to dedicate time to REI. Hopefully one day I'll be able to leave the corporate world to run our real estate empire :) We want to get our business up an running in the next 6 months! We are looking to invest in Central Indiana, in and around Indianapolis mostly. Currently reside in Zionsville, a suburb northwest of Indianapolis.

I'm open to connecting with investors in Central Indiana, feel free to add me or message me. I recently found some info on local REIA, so I look forward to joining and participating in those.

I look forward to interacting with the BP community as I learn and grow!

@Joe Schriever Welcome to BP and Indy real estate investing... There are a couple of REIA groups in Indy... Just using common sense and getting multiple unrelated opinions will help you save your bacon...

I am not trying to pimp myself, but I feel like people need options when looking at Indy real estate investing..  Even if you just need a second set of eyes on a deal you are looking at, hit me up.. Happy to help!

I work in Indy. I am a licensed managing broker and primarily only work with investors(foreign and domestic).  I not only manage properties, but I am also an investor myself. I have been flipping homes since 1991 and have owned rentals since 2007.

We can help you with purchase, any level of rehab, property management and sales. It's your money, so I don't mind if you just want to use us for 1 piece of the puzzle, or just a second set of eyes to look at a situation and answer a quick question. Happy to help!

Couple of services we offer:

1. Video services $100 - We will go out to your property and HD film(1080p/60fps) a property for you and point out any issues we see with the property. Great for the out of state owner that needs to know where he is with his properties or wants to review before purchase. I am not an inspector, nor will I debate with your contractor/tenants, but I will point things out as I see them.

2. $5 comparative market analysis - You give me the address, and I will pull up Active, pending, sold over the past year and leases within past 2 years. Quarter mile radius or neighborhood. You will get spreadsheet view, map view, individual listings, and all of the pictures for those listings.

3. $10 a month I have a person who screens out properties that are listed every day looking for listings that are 70% below assessed values. You will get an email daily, and if you are interested we will go take a look at it for you. - We do require that if you get a lead from us that you will use us as the agent to purchase said property.
