Welcome to BP @Denice Nagel

What amazing weather we've been having in the Bay, like @Account Closed said, we could definately use the rain though!

BP is a great resource to learn about other investors techniques and markets across the US. I've learned a ton, just from the podcasts and reading up on others successes.

I live near the new home of the 49er's in Santa Clara, very exciting to see the buzz and development happening in the area.

Good luck on your investments and look forward to seeing more from you on BP!

@Darrell Shepherd - I did the same as you, ha! Spelling and clicking the name in the bottom of the post is how to @mention someone.

@Darrell Shepherd

Spelling their name right helps!

Good info on the AdWords, I've learning laser focus on long tail keywords can help fine tune your organic search and AdWords campaigns.

Any experience with that?

I'm guessing he said 6-12 months in reference to the pre-foreclosures being short sales which can take 6-12 months to close. You should clarify why you wouldn't get paid when the deal closes.

Do some more networking and I'm sure you can find a bunch of investors willing to buy properties from you and not require a contract.

Good Afternoon BiggerPockets members!

I am not new to BP but this is my first post and thought I would make sure to follow the protocol of introduction first.

I have been in the Real Estate business for 8 years starting out as a young agent with dreams of being a successful investor. I started buying property in 2005 and had success as a real estate agent. Things were great until the market came to a halt and I had to focus in other areas.

Over the last year I have assembled a great team of investors and contractors to flip single family homes.

I am focusing on the South Bay Area but have resources in the entire San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento metro areas.

I am currently seeking professional and aspiring wholesalers throughout the Bay Area and Sacramento region to connect with.
