Word is getting out, slowly but surely.

Not sure how you are expecting members here to assist you, when you keep making excuses to NOT help yourself?

I have a lot to learn and plan for so this is a great start.

I'm sure there's other stuff you'll want to factor in - what businesses are moving to and from each areas. 

Make sure you budget for the negative year.

I can definitely attribute a lot of my success over the last few years due to the connections I made on Bigger Pockets and the things I've just simply learned by listening to and reading all the great info available here!

It also means you don't have to learn two different ways of doing things. 

Definitely more I would need to learn in order to make it work.

I am excited to start building my portfolio and learning all I can.
