So I have to ask the BP community to chime in with their opinions.

Hi all i'm new to the community my name is Miguel and i'm looking forward to learn with all you guys about the beauty of real state. a little something about me, i'm 37 years old i'm a proud father of 2 boys and 1 girl, as well a beautiful wife, i love working out in the gym,running playing basketball and really anything that can improve my healthy life style. i work in the construction field doing office work, yeah yeah your typical 9-5 only mine is 6am to 5pm yes long hours and i'm tired of it. being doing it for 10 years and i believe there something better out in this world for me and that's one of the reasons i decide to give this community a try. i'm not that far behind on the real state me and my wife bought our first one and only home 9 years ago a multifamily home and we being leaving rent free. but now its getting old not knowing whats next and how to provide some freedom to spend more time with my family. i always like real state but never gave the proper effort to learn more about it and to stretch it to the max. so that's a little about me i'm sure i will meet a lot of awesome people here and i'm looking forward to it, anyone from new jersey i'm here if you like to go for a jog or grab a cup coffee.

I'm new here as well but can already tell that BP is a great community.

Welcome to the community @Tramaine Rollins .

I am looking to get a general consensus on the amount of interest from the BP community before I start getting this all together so I can choose the right venue. 

I have been imagining building my sales website (buyers guide, community pages, IDX integration, home valuation page, etc) on MyOhioProperty.com and then building Evolvedproperty.com to give details on our services including making cash offers on homes, renovations, and our homes for rent.

I just wanted to introduce and give a quick background on myself, as well as say how excited and appreciative I am for having such an immense and deep source of Real Estate Investing knowledge and community all in one place here on BiggerPockets.I'm Alex Little.

Respected for his unique blend of creative and analytical thinking underpinned with a commitment to collaboration, intelligent risk-taking, entrepreneurial spirit and leadership presence within dynamic organizations he knows how to keep it real and close the deal.In addition to his business interests, Mark is involved in numerous community outreach and volunteer organizations including the South Brentwood Residents Association (advisory board member,) local homeless advocacy group The Giving Spirit (chairperson-fundraising, community outreach,) American Youth Soccer League (referee and division mentor,) and the Girl Scouts of America to name a few.

I love the podcast and the community!

My thoughts are that aside from gated communities, pocket neighborhoods and shared housing foster a sense of community and increase safety of neighborhooods.
