Welcome Jim,

I'm glad to see there are new members from the same side of town.  I have lived in Altoona for quite some time now but my rentals are in Des Moines.  I am searching for my next rental but am having some difficulty narrowing down my search.  The inventory is low, prices and competition high, and the good deals when I don't move fast enough.  

If you guys want to meet up at a coffee shop in Altoona or Des Moines let me know.  Smokey row is always a great choice.

Jake

Gary,

The third Thursday is on April 22nd of this month. I look forward to seeing you there. I logged into IA REIA and created an account. I will check their calendar and find a meeting.

Keywords alerts have been set up. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for all the responses. I will look into local REIA meetings, and attend one in the near future.

Also, the podcasts are awesome. Tons of great info there.

Hello everyone!  I stumbled across BiggerPockets and decided I want to be a part of this community.

 My name is Jacob Mosqueda and I'm 27 years old. I am full-time student pursuing a bachelor degree in Finance.  I am a landlord with one rental property and have flipped one property on my own. Unfortunately, I partied too much then and blew all my profits from the deal.  Oops! This was years ago, and I am now in recovery from alcoholism.

My goals in real estate: I want to accumulate properties, and generate passive income. I want to flip a few houses, too, to see which path I would like to start my business down.  I have a lot to learn, but I am willing to put in the effort.  I look forward to meeting like-minded individuals that can help me along the journey. 

I am specifically looking for someone to point me in the direction on where to get solid advice regarding a considerable amount of capital my family and I will be receiving in dividend payments over the next few years, and where to invest said capital. My father recently passed away, and I want to build my portfolio with what he has left for us. Please be considerate in your responses. Only looking for a friendly welcome, and hopefully somebody willing to help me navigate around the site.  Thank you very much!
