Thanks a lot for the information. That's really helfpul to know. I'll be sure to check those out.

Great to hear from you, Joan and Larry! 

Does anyone happen to know of a good REI club to join in the Twin Cities area? I joined the Minneapolis REIA club and MAREI club on Meetup, but it's unclear of when they meet. If anybody happens to know that would be a big help. Thanks!

Thanks for reaching out @Nick Stango and @Matthew Berry! Always great to hear from others. Best of luck and I'm looking forward to talking with you further, Matt.

Hey Louis,

Great tips, thanks for the advice! I've been living off the BP podcasts the past week and I agree those are great resources. I'll definitely have to check out "The Book on Flipping Houses" and make that next up on my reading list. 

Welcome, Matt! I'm also new here and from Minneapolis. Looking forward to learning with you.

Hey Guys & Gals,

Spoiler alert the new guy I was talking about is me so don't do too much sleuthing to try and solve the mystery. As the subject said, I'm new to real estate investing in the Twin Cities area and excited to learn from all the brilliant people on BP. Quick blurb about me, I'm a recent graduate from the University of Notre Dame (go Irish!) and just by saying that I likely either won your heart or earned your eternal disdain. I'm currently working as an actuarial consultant in the health care sector, but my long term goal is to transition into real estate investing full-time. As a new investor, I'm looking to start with single family homes in Hennepin county that I could ideally use an FHA loan to turn into a primary residence before selling in a year or two. I'm an avid sports fan and love to read, so thanks to the lack of good sports teams in Minnesota I've been soaking up every real estate book I can get my hands on, but I'd love to hear your favorites. My goal on BP is to build mutually fruitful relationships for years to come while learning the ropes of real estate from all the great people here. Looking forward to connecting with all of you and kicking off my career!

Cheers,

Ryan
