My problem is today I'm looking at Dallas - Fort Worth area, tomorrow at Nashville TN area, then Indianapolis, then I read some posts here and I move to Columbus, OH, or Atlanta, GA.

Before you go, do your homework and read the city ordinances that you can have in the city website.

@Braden Smith @Ron Collins @Sam Brooks Hey guys, I was just reading over the post and a meet up sounds great.

I'd suggest that you start reading, listening to BP blogs and Podcasts.

I’m new in this and I’m super excited to learn everything that I could about real estate , any recommendation about books that I should be reading ?

Read the LA RSO Handbook many, many times.

The only glitch though is from what I read, that the banks will stop offering a mortgage somewhere after a few mortgages (depending on the bank I guess). 

$40,000 will likely get you a $150,000 house at 20% down, closing costs and a small budget for repairs.I would continue the first 1/2 of 2019 educating yourself on real estate(reading books, podcasts and analyzing properties on the MLS).Good luck to your investing career.

I monitor the Houston forum, so I have read many of your posts - The primary theme I see in your posts is that you generously offer your time and expertise to new investors and allow a group of new or wannabe investors the opportunity to walk your flips and tag along with you while you are looking for or working on a project - very generous of you - I see that you were able to give an amazing opportunity to a new investor when she may have not had the confidence to move forward on her own without your guidance - I am a fan of collaborating with other investors when you do not have the funds to complete a project on your own ... it can be a win/win opportunity that otherwise would have to be passed up ......However, when I read the details in this post, a few things come to mind - it seems that you used very little of your own money ...$5,000?

Read the books they recommend!
