Thanks, everyone, for your warm welcome!

@Rick Pozos, I was thinking about you! Unfortunately, until I have a single family home, I won't be able to attend your meetings at Luby's because my furry baby will cry the entire time and be a nuisance to my apartment neighbors. I don't want to be bothersome to my neighbors or give impression that I'm a bad pet owner.

@Tim Macy, I will be reaching out to you to tap your team's expertise!

@Paul Timmins, I'm doing some of what you described already, but you mentioned others that I haven't looked into. Thanks!

Hi all,

I recently moved to San Antonio from the Chicago area. My real estate goals for 2016 are to purchase my primary residence and one rental property (both 3/2 sfh). I'm interested in accruing a small number of buy and hold rental properties for retirement income. I have a full time job as a brain injury researcher which I love, so my real estate endeavors are a part-time hobby. I'm looking to connect with experienced wholesalers, construction, realtors, attorney, CPA, etc. who can help me acquire and turn deals into rentals. Because I'm new to the area, I'm looking at north, northeast, and northwest sides for now, preferably inside the 1604 loop and in a desirable school district. My primary residence has to be within 1/2 hour driving distance to SAMMC, where I work. I welcome advice about how realistic my goals are.

I'm learning a lot from the BP community. Thank you all for sharing your experience and wisdom!
