Hello all. My name is Doug and I am a reader of the forums with the drive to get started investing, birddogging, etc. My wife and I plan to start by going to a nearby REI club meeting to network for mentor/birddog relationships. I came to this conclusion through advice given on the boards. I have completed an appraiser trainee certification last summer which I will use to identify good deals(income approach :-)!!) I plan to enter this field by contracting preforclosures and selling these to investors. Ideally, through this I will be able to build some investment capital.
I forget the name of the club off hand, but it’s here in Los Angeles at the Radisson hotel. Any feedback for what to expect from anyone who’s been here, I’m listening or maybe you’ll be there too…either way let me know.
Peace
