@Josh Domingo welcome to the BP community! I live in Indy and am just getting started in REI. I've been helping out some out-of-state investors who are interested in Indy by scouting opportunities, taking tons of pics, providing insight into the neighborhoods, etc. Broad Ripple, Fountain Square, and Irvington are some hopping areas right now - you've scoped some good ones already. Check out Bates Hendricks and Mapleton Fall Creek too. If you need some help, feel free to reach out, I'd be happy to connect further.

Thanks @Brett Snodgrass @Ayodeji Kuponiyi and @Mark Nolan! I've been following the blog and it's packed with good content. Education is the main aim for now!

Thanks @Erin Donlan and @Edward Rhoads! I've marked some INREIA and CIREIA meetings on my calendar and plan to attend! Looking forward to jumping in.

Howdy, Bigger Pockets community!

My name is Ryan Wilkins and I'm a resident of Indianapolis, IN, looking to get my feet wet with real estate investing. I graduated from Indiana University in 2015 and have been working at a software company in downtown Indy since.

I don't have any background in real estate, but I'm looking to learn as much as I can by networking with Indy pros and shadowing some deals. I hope to house hack a duplex next year, and then grow my rental portfolio to approximately 10 properties in 5 years.

I stumbled upon the BiggerPockets podcast a few months ago and have been hooked ever since. The podcast really sparked my interest in the real estate space, and also convinced me that normal people like myself can find success in the industry. 

Excited to meet you all and get started investing!
