Welcome to BP Sandy! Glad to see you decided to start lurking and start getting involved on the forums. And don't worry, things will become more and more clear as you continue to learn and start investing. Good luck!

Welcome to BP Meg, glad to see you on the forums! There are several successful husband and wife teams here on BP...have you listened to the most recent podcast yet?

Good luck and if you cannot find something please ask, someone will point you in the right direction.

Brian Burke nailed it. Small local and community banks are usually able to provide more options for these type of loans, but they are almost certainly going to require personal guarantees on the loans.

Tom Goans, I love your wisdom / experience filled posts...I feel like I am in school!

Welcome to BP Robert...I second Brandon, please tell us a little about yourself and your real estate experience and goals.

Welcome to BP Terrell, glad you decided to come out from the shadows and start posting in the forums, I think you will learn a lot more by being active. Checkout the wholesaling forums if you haven't yet, there is some great information (especially about marketing) that can really help you out.

Good luck and if you can't find something, just ask...someone will point you in the right direction.

Welcome to BP Cody, glad you decided to come from out of the shadows and start participating in the forums. I look forward to your input!

Welcome to BP Mandy! I love the idea of buying that first property and bringing your roomates, that is a great way to get started in real estate investing. They help pay for the property and then you rent it out when you move...well done!

It sounds like you are on a nice path and have a good plan going forward. I am a huge fan of getting licensed, and thats exactly what I did when I was getting started.

Have you checked out the Ultimate Beginner's Guide yet? It is a great free resource and real estate primer. I would also recommend listening to the podcasts...they are awesome.

Good luck and let us know how we can help!

Welcome to BP Rebecca. There are a lot of folks from the DFW area around here, I am sure some of them will chime in and introduce themselves. In the meantime, make sure you browse the resources here at BiggerPockets (forums, blogs, podcasts, etc), there is a ton of great stuff!

Good luck!
