Hi Whitney, and welcome! I am also a relatively new member, living in Virginia. My wife is from the Goldsboro area of NC and we are looking to invest in eastern NC in addition to VA. I'm also looking to raise some capital (flip, wholesale) for reserves to build my buy and hold business.

Congrats on the second home!

Thanks for the welcome! Brandon, your podcasts are awesome. You and Josh do a great job keeping the audience engaged with the information and the way you deliver with humor and personal anecdotes.

Ned, thanks for the link. I'm really looking forward to getting more plugged in to the local market and the people who are making things happen here!

Hello everyone!

I've been on Bigger Pockets for about a month now, and have been devouring as much great knowledge as I can. I've been educating myself on the business of real estate investing for the past year, and now I'm ready to begin to move properties.

A little about me - I am a former Marine Corps officer (helicopter pilot) living in Northern VA. I work full-time as a consultant, supporting government clients in the IT (cloud analytics and cybersecurity) world.

I've always been interested in real estate, but decided to wait until I was more stable and out of the military to do anything about it. As in anything, success depends on education. I've spent the last year aggressively educating myself by reading everything I can, taking courses, networking, and of course BiggerPockets! The podcasts are particularly useful.

Now - I'm really looking forward to getting and remaining engaged in this community, and getting to know and work with all of you!

To our mutual success,
Jay
