Hi Everyone!

My name is Daniel Schlittler, and I'm a soon to be Real Estate investor. My goal is to purchase my first property (a SFR) in the growing North Texas area by October of this year. These cities include: Prosper, Celina, Gunter, Melissa, Anna, Sherman, Van Alstyne, etc.

I've been consuming a ton of BP content via podcasts & books, but am really looking to expand my network. My goal in posting this is to see if there's anyone in the Dallas/North Texas area that would be interested in starting some sort of regular meetup with me where we can share ideas, information, etc. The more the merrier!

I didn't see what I was looking for under the meetup tab, so I figured I'd reach out to everyone directly. Please let me know if you're interested!

Either way, I'm excited to be here & look forward to hopefully meeting/talking with some of you.

 @Daniel Schlittler  I'm in!  love the idea!

Quote from @Christian Alexander:

Happy New Year! My name is Christian Alexander. I just moved here from Nebraska, I currently reside in Forney, and so far, I love it. I retired from the Army about two years ago, and during the last 3 years serving I started investing in real estate for extra income on the side. Since then, I have done 15+ deals and own 2 million worth of real estate scattered throughout the Midwest. This year, I’m looking to really get the ball rolling with a lot more volume. I’m looking to acquire more properties as well as wholesale some deals and even start some Airbnbs. 

Please feel free to reach out! I hope to network with you all as well as maybe even do some deals together in the future. I wish everyone in this group a Happy New Year and a year of nothing but accomplishments

 @Christian Alexander Welcome to Texas and thank you for your service!  Forney is a great area.  Congrats on the move and positioning yourself the way you have.  Impressive!  Happy to help anyway we can.

Quote from @Darryl Schott:

Howdy. I am a new member to BP, originally from San Antonio, TX currently living in New Braunfels, TX, and just starting out in REI. I've read to the guide to BRRRR from David Greene and I'm anxious to start assembling a team. I have a question that's been gnawing at me:

1.  My primary residence will be paid off in March 2023 since I've been throwing all extra income and non-emergency savings at the house.  We will be 100% debt free.  Because of this, I have no liquid capital to start BRRRR.  I can either save ~75k in the next calendar year (presumably 50k for down payment, 25k for rehab) and wait a year before beginning, or, is it possible (and wise) to borrow against my primary residence to get started now and keep the momentum going.  I'm concerned about losing momentum of trying a 90 day challenge to buy my first property.  What are your thoughts on managing the finances given this situation?

I have no network yet in the San Antonio/Austin metro (if we stay local) or the Indianapolis, IN metro (if we go out of state), but my wife and I are very interested in building a significant real estate portfolio for the next 20+ years.  I'm already on the path with self-education, but I'm eager to connect with lenders, property managers, contractors, and agents who have a heart of a teacher.  If that's you, let's talk!  I want to add value to your businesses by learning and DOING my part as well as I possibly can as the portfolio grows.



  

@Nathan Grabau

First off, congratulations on your diligence to prepare yourself to invest. Most never get that far. I personally did a HELOC (please insure that the time and terms are right for you). I don't think you can go wrong either way. Building a trusted team is essential. We manage and also invest using BRRRR so we're happy to answer any questions. Best of luck and Happy Investing!

Hey Everyone!

Reaching out to the community to see if there are any good mortgage brokers in the Dallas area. My really good friend is a single mom and is looking to buy her first home but is struggling with high student loan debt and wants to find a broker that can help her understand her best options to home ownership. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

@Jeff Davis

@Andrew Postell

 I highly recommend Andrew Postell.  He's a very experienced Lendor.  He's extremely knowledgeable and kind and very easy to work with.

Best of luck!
