Hello All Complete Newbie here looking to learn observe and plan!

[Michael Shenouda]

Hello All,

Total newbie here looking towards the future and I am very drawn to the potential and promise of real estate. I read a ton on Reddit, and other blogs such as this one. 

Due to personal circumstances I will not be in a position to actually "jump in" until sometime in 2026. It seems like a lifetime away, but I'm looking at this as a great opportunity to learn from the experts and save (I don't make a ton and with kids soon to be in college I make even less!). 

I would anticipate having far too many questions, I hope I don't alienate this fine community! From the reading I have done so far I feel one of my biggest issues is going to be information overload causing "paralysis"; i.e. deciding what route to take SFH, Multi family, Corporate, NNNs. Depending on what you read they all sound fantastic.

Anyways, looking forward to hearing and meeting many of you and hopefully getting in touch with some folks in the Pittsburgh area who wouldn't mind sharing their wisdom as well!
