I am taking it all in and looking forward to implementing ideas and watching out for and avoiding pitfalls in my journey.

I'm not going to be able to find the post, but within say a month a poster talked about how he is watching his friend LIST a SFO area property for $1.8mil (and both doubt he will get it), but purchased its for $2.1mil in 2021... 

I will watch to see if I'm right on this.

Aside from it feeling like your being watched.

Also watch out for HOA restrictions that may prohibit certain kinds of establishments, noise, hours of operations, and odors. 

It's a copycat league so figured we might eventually see this in CO after watching things unfold in CA and FL. 

We just got back from visiting the area and have decided that we want to buy in Bradenton, FL since that area seems to fit us best and our future needs while also still being within our current price range (<$450k).I have already listened and watched many BP webinars and podcasts and am about to purchase David’s book, start with strategy since I feel that’s the best next step for me and my husband to get our plan onto paper and to solidify our thoughts together (all while still saving money of course!).

I currently have a little over 35k in high yield savings and I'm on pace to have around 100k when I'm 18, I have a bit of money in stocks but I've always wanted to get into real estate, ive been watching the bigger pockets podcast for a while and ive also read quite a few books, i know how to value properties and I have 2 people who are willing to cosign deals for me.

its well worth the watch.  

What we need to think about is what to make for dinner, or how to meet this deadline, or what show to watch tonight.
