First I’d like to thank you for welcoming me.Like I said I’m a real estate broker and with the housing market the way it is I noticed more and more foreclosures so I looked around for a forum about foreclosures and found Biggerpockets, the information that is discussed on this site is exactly what I was looking for but what I Like about it the most is the positive nature everyone seems to have anyhowI’ve been an agent since Feb. 07 but my back ground until then has been new builds and remodeling (construction) my interest in homes started along time ago but know I’m getting away from the physical laborand I want to understand homes a little bit differently.I'm not sure just yet what type of REI but so far I’m trying to get a general understanding of it all but, I do, and will have questions.Any questions feel free to ask, thank you

It would seem that your background will come in handy when you give advice to some of the newer newbies.

I hope to hear more about your background on a personal level.

I say get back into it by finding local investors and I am sure you, with your background know many people with money!

I have check with the courhouse on background info & suchand will be going to the auction to bid on it.*** My question is: Can I buy this directly from the lender before the auction?

I'd also like to hear more about your background.

I am not looking to make millions of dollars in a matter of months but instead hope to build up a portfolio of winners that will set my family and me up for life 10 or 15 (or more) years down the road.With that introduction and background on my plans for the future, does anyone have any insight?

Please tell us a bit about yourself, your background, your successes, failures, etc.Thanks for your understanding.
