@Chris Rider

Hey my man, I am not opposed to other housing markets. I would love to connect sometime!

@Anthony Angotti

I’m definitely okay with looking at markets other than Robinson. I would love to talk sometime.

@Kirk R.

That is a great idea, because I wasn’t quite sure what the timeline would look like for me going forward and getting started with acquiring a loan.

@Corey Hawkinson

I’m never one to ask for a “mentor”, but I would just like to understand where a lot of you stood when going about starting off in real estate. I am very early on, but I know with where I want to be I will have grown a lot in a year even. I understand the whole analysis paralysis notion, I guess I just really don’t know what I don’t know if that makes sense. So any advice or guidance is greatly appreciated. I’m just trying grab any piece of knowledge that I can so that I can start truly molding my real estate perspective and identity.

@Craig Sloan

How’s it going my man, I appreciate your response. I just started my journey in learning the ropes. I am half way through my first book, The Book on Rental Property Investing, I will definitely check out the books you recommended, since all of a sudden I am a reader. I never was until it was something I was passionate about. I’ll let you know what I think.

Thanks,

Larry Cersosimo

@Jay Helms

Hey Jay,

As a beginner, I’m just trying to read the Biggerpocket books and listen to the podcasts. I just opened up my first credit line and I would like to get in the game in roughly a year from now, obviously depending on my comfortability. Being a decently broke college student, I know I’m going to have to save up. Further, I know I obviously don’t need a whole lot to start. This aspect rightfully frightens me. I was wondering while I am still learning the tips of the trade, should I focus more on one method and tailor my focus on a certain one? Should I entertain and try to learn different ones? Just curious on your thoughts.
