I am not overly worried about keeping it rented, but just a natural pessimist/conservative person so nervous about competing for rentals against the guys with a bigger reach.

I have a townhouse in MD that I've rented out for about 3 years with a property manager, but never really did consider that much of an "investment" as I'm pretty much just holding onto it until I can get out of it without losing my shirt.The bigger reason I'm here is that I just recently went in as a partner on three 4-plexes in Texas as an investment.

I know that everyone on Bigger Pockets got their start somewhere so I will be leaning on you all a lot.I want to begin with wholesale investing for now.

My name is Jay Davis, and it's a pleasure to be here on Bigger Pockets.

HELLO, BIGGER POCKETS!

That said, in the Real Estate Investment arena, the majority of 'gurus' are just shallow self promoters, and the bigger they are the more shameless they are likely to be, so I can understand how one would get the impression that the term guru is a negative reference.

Hello, bigger pockets.

Bigger, more units.

Kenneth Goldman Welcome to the crazy fun online party that is Bigger Pockets.

We were told about Bigger Pockets from a Wholesaling instructor with Rich Dad Education.
