Real estate Investing

[Bo McCraw]

Hi, I am 19 years old. My roommate, and best friend, have been doing a ton of research on real estate investing, both have read Rich Dad Poor Dad, and are very excited about getting our heads in the game of real estate investing. We both have almost no credit, so we are both getting credit cards (only to pay bills, groceries, and gas, which we will pay off every month) to build up our credit, which is probably the first step before trying to get into anything. We were wondering if there is anybody in our area that we could shadow/get mentored by, or if there is a community of fellow investors that we could get plugged into. We live in Lubbock, TX. Thanks! Thanks!

@Bo McCraw, that is awesome that you are researching a lot on real estate investing. You are also in a great city to begin your investment careers! I know a lot of young investors in Lubbock who started out while in college. We have two REIA (Real Estate Investment groups) that have started in Lubbock after a lapse for a year or so. I will send you a colleague request and keep you informed.

Also listen to the podcasts. They are awesome!
