But I still want to try running both sets of numbers to get familiar with both processes.Again thank you all for your contributions thus far and I'll update with any new information or developments.

Thank you @Brandon Turner and Jordan Thibodeau for the welcome.I have already filled my keyword quota and they are working quite nicely, I could certainly use a few more.Forums have been great, mostly reading and learning for now but looking forward to being able to contribute meaningfully as I gain knowledge and experience.

Any tips, tricks, or foundational information anyone can provide will be well received :) I look forward to learning and contributing to the community!

Secondly, I would like to say thank you to EVERY member who contributed even a single post to say hello to a newbie or offer some creative input.

I've devoured the podcasts and read a couple dozen real estate books already.I feel like I've learned a ton but I'm still not quite ready to pull the trigger on my first deal so in the meantime I'd love to connect with some local investors and those of you across the country.Thank you all who actively contribute!

I look forward to getting to know everyone on here and helping when I get the knowledge to contribute.

Happy Birthday to Bigger Pockets, I really appreciate this site and to all of the great members that continue to contribute knowledge.

lots of falsified or left out information, and even a few incorrect things.I actually watch this show from time to time and contribute to the Nation's need for "reality TV" - let me apologize now - and do so for the entertainment value as I get a kick out of some of the stupid things that go on that would never go on in my business as well as the fact that I love to check their numbers at the end to see how far off they are.
