Thanks so much it was my pleasure & pain at times. 

Thanks also for the quick links to the resources as well. I have been eating this site up over the last week or so. 

Good Day all,

My name is Eric, I have been a student of Real Estate Investment since I was 16. I kept jumping in and out of the pool and learned a lot of "Creative REI" methods although I was never able to gather the self confidence to put theory into practice.

I served in the US Army for 14 years combined active and reserve including a tour in Iraq in 06-07 at which time my wife and I purchased our first home and instead of going with the REO that needed work we went with a more middle ground outdated but move in ready home at double + the price. I am not sure if I thought that was a sign or something but I let that delay things even further and continued to be a side liner that was always researching the latest creative strategy.

I only recently found biggerpockets.com from being on @JSCOTT mailing list over at 123flip. Adding that to the new found self confidence and ability to focus and F.O.C.U.S I believe that I will finally be able to make waves in this business starting this year.

I plan to start by finding a mentor, networking and with perseverance getting my first deal done this year.

Stay tuned.

Thanks all,

Eric D.
