Hi @Parker Stiles !  I'd like to go full-time perhaps in January but not sure how to make the transition.  I'd like to have at least one deal under my belt before I give up the job.  I'll have to hit you up to see how you did it.  Thanks for reaching out!

Hi @Eli Rose !

Thanks for reaching out!  I would love to attend the next meeting.  Is there a BP page (or other site) for the group?

Hi @Kim Bayless!

Thanks for the welcome and advice! I had previously tried to use the meetup app to find REI clubs but didn't have much success. But I'll give it a second look. I wish I could have made it to last night's meeting but hopefully you'll see me at the next one!

Thanks again!

Clarke

Hi @Julie Kern !

Thanks for the warm welcome!  I did follow up with Robert and we'll be meeting this Friday. I'm really looking forward to it.

Four rental properties in 2 years! That sounds pretty darn good! I'm certain I'll be bugging you with a few questions pretty soon! :)

Thanks again!

Clarke

Hi @Deb Paternostro!  Thanks for reaching out!  

My sister lives in NY and actually just bought a house there.  Though, she's on the other side of the state from you in NYC.  Is your daughter in Woodstock involved in real estate herself?  This might sound funny coming from someone my age but I completely agree that it's never too late in life to start anything.  So good for you!  

Also thanks for the tip to find a local group.  I'm just now meeting some local people but that would certainly jump start the process.  And I'll check out "E Myth".  It'll probably be another audiobook accompanying me on the way to work.

Best of luck to you!

Clarke

@Eddie Atkinson, Thanks for the encouragement and you're advice not to hesitate too much. I'm definitely the type of person that can over plan things sometimes.

Congratulations on taking your 1st step yesterday!! Can I ask what that 1st step was??

Hi @Robert Gilstrap!  

(Sorry for the delay, I somehow missed you message earlier.)

Thanks for the encouragement about stepping away from the status-quo job. There's a lot to consider and I can see why some never make the step at all. But, with that said, I'm determined NOT to settle!

Any chance you'd have any time for a free lunch or dinner this weekend?  Or sometime next week?

Thanks!

Clarke Monroe

Nice to meet you Jorge!  Thanks for all the info!  I had come across a couple of those resources but a majority are completely new to me. So rha ks again for sharing. I'll start going through them immediately and look for those meetups you mentioned.

Thanks!
