Thank you all for the warm welcome and great tips. Sorry for the slow response. I've been tied up working relentlessly in an attempt to have a smooth start up for my business and I haven't been able to post at all. I've learned a whole lot in the last 2 weeks. Special thanks to George foster for some great early advice. And also to Brie Schmidt for connecting me to Lumi Ispas for some much needed direction. I apprecieate you all.

Good advise @Account Closed when I first joined BP I planned on posting on the forums nonstop. But with all of these training classes and showing clients I find myself in the field most of the day. Once I do get through this learning curve I'll definitely become more active. Speaking of France I'll be taking my wife to France next year for our 10yr anniversary. I CAN'T WAIT!

On a side note I'm not looking for a hard money lender to close one of my deals or a mentor to cling on to. I'm not selling any programs or pushing any books. I'm just tired of discussing the last award shows, reality TV or the funniest new skit circulating social media. I just want a good conversation in between monthly REI meetings.

If anyone is in the Plainfield or Western Suburbs area that wants to talk REI over lunch one day let me know. I don't think I'm networking enough with like minded people. I find myself talking to friends and family about deals and most of the time it seems they could care less. I'm hungry for knowledge.

Thanks @Brie Schmidt - I'm really looking forward to tomorrows meet up. This will be the second one I've attended. The first one I didn't have any cards made up because I was waiting to see if I would be able to add Broker or not. Well the cards just came in and I'm on the way to pick them up now. Very exciting times.

Good Morning BP!

This is my first post on BP but I've been hovering over the site for months. I've listened to all the podcast, set up my keywords alerts, gone through all the newbie articles and now its time to step off the side lines and get active....

Just a little background - I was born and raised in Chicago but I've spent the last 10 years living in the Western Sub from Hillside to Aurora and now Plainfield. I passed my Illinois Brokers exam at the beginning of this month and I'm totally excited about meeting and networking with like minded people. My investment goal is to wholesale/rehab and property manage to generate capital needed for purchasing buy and hold property.

I'm looking forward to connecting with different investors to soak up as much as I can before I launch my marketing campaign! I'll keep everyone posted as it progresses.
