I get it. What age range are you targeting? High school? College?

As of now I'm targeting ages 8-25, segmented into groups (8-12, 13-17, and 18-25). I'm actively outlining a curriculum and developing tailored resources for each age group.

Hey everyone,

I'm working on a nonprofit idea focused on teaching kids and young adults about real estate investing and financial lieracy. I’m on the lookout for educators, real estate pros, investors, content creators, and mentors who are passionate about sharing their knowledge with the next generation. If you’re interested in brainstorming or partnering to empower young people with real-world financial skills, please drop me a message. I'd love to hear your thoughts and explore how we can make a difference together.

Hey @Phil Avery! Have you contacted anyone with a local Junior Achievement chapter in/around Houston? I think that would be a great place to start so you're not re-creating the wheel.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely look into local Junior Achievement chapters in Houston as a resource and explore potential collaborations. At the same time, I have a vision I'm passionate about bringing to life, maybe even reinventing the wheel a bit! ;)

Hey BP community!

I’m currently searching for a reliable property management company to manage a single-family home in Vero Beach, FL (Indian River County). I’m looking for recommendations for companies that have a great reputation, are honest, and provide high-quality service without overcharging for their management fees.

If you’ve worked with a property manager in the area or know of any companies that stand out, I’d appreciate your insight!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

when you've made as many mistakes as I have, you're bound to start winning!

 Love it. 100% Agreed.

Most deals haven't penciled. The goal is to get to know as many brokers as possible, and to be top of mind.

Once you start going on property tours on deals that suck, brokers will start saying things like, Hey I've got this deal coming up next month. Wanna take a look at it?

It's all about consistency, and follow up. And brokers don't want tire kickers just calling them for deals, and they don't want to go out for a cup of coffee. They want to know you're serious and committed. And when they do send over a deal, you have an answer by day's end.

I wouldn't call it a tactic, I would call it a process, repeatable and consistent.

Gino for the win once again! Great insight.

I love the idea of this!!

Absolutely! I can’t think of anything more fulfilling than igniting those light bulbs in the minds of our youth. Financial literacy and investing are crucial skills that, unfortunately, aren’t taught in schools. Given that investing is often more about time in the market than timing the market, it’s imperative that our youth learn these foundations early. The impact this knowledge can have on their futures is enormous! I'm looking forward to this journey for sure! 

As a father and a real estate investor, one of the most fulfilling experiences I've had is guiding my 16-year-old son into the world of real estate investing. It's amazing to see the next generation take an interest in building wealth and understanding the power of smart investments from such a young age. I've got a 7 year old daughter as well who wants to own mansions lol. smh 

I believe there’s a huge opportunity to empower more young people with the knowledge and tools they need to get started in real estate investing. That’s why I’m considering creating a free website packed with resources, tips, and lessons specifically broken down for kids and teens. I’m also exploring the idea of starting a nonprofit dedicated to this mission—helping youth get acclimated to real estate investing and setting them up for a financially secure future.

If anyone in this community is interested in contributing or being involved in such a venture, I’d love to connect and discuss how we can make a bigger impact together. Let’s pool our knowledge and resources to create something truly meaningful for the next generation!

Hey Everyone,

I'm currently looking to connect with wholesalers, investor-friendly Realtors, and builders in the Houston, TX area.
Here’s a brief description of my buy box:

  • Single-Family Homes
  • Small Multi-Family
  • Apartments (under $1M)
  • New Construction properties with strong builder incentives
    
• Price Range:
  • Single-Family Homes and Small Multi-Family: Flexible, depending on the deal
  • Apartments: Under $1M
    
• Location: Anywhere in Harris County, with a preference for properties in the Metro Houston area
  
• Condition: Properties needing light to medium rehab or offering value-add opportunities

I am also open to working with investor-friendly Realtors. (Disclaimer: I am a Realtor myself as well.)

If you have properties that fit this criteria, I'd love to get on your buyers list.

Please feel free to reach out and let's discuss potential opportunities!

Looking forward to connecting with you all!!

Hello Phil! 

Reach out! Call/text/email or message me here anytime! Would love to work with you. Right now I have one off market with tornado damage that seller agreed recently to sell for a lower price at 88k that includes closing costs, and one by same seller on market but greatly reduced and I have permission to sell it for 160k. It's listed at 204k online now. Both need updating and here in Houston. And I know of homes with loan assumption between 2.75%, 3%, 4.25% and 5.25%. Some are in San Antonio also. I've found land listed in North Houston for 15k an acre in large tracts, etc. I'm in close contact with a new homes sales manager with communities in several areas here also and she said many investors have been buying them to use solely as rentals this last few months so definitely can show you those as well. Let's talk!! 💗

Hey Selena, 

Thanks for reaching out! I'm definitely interested in learning more about the properties you mentioned, especially the reduced-price property in Houston. The new community properties and the land in North Houston also sound intriguing. Let's connect and discuss how we can work together on these deals. I'll message you!
