New Investor Looking For Guidance and To Build Network

Jarrad Chabria
Posted

Hi all! My name is Jarrad I am 23 years old and I currently live in Dallas, TX. I am new to the BP community and RE investing however despite this I have been doing my research in order to get into position to eventually become an investor. Although I currently live in Dallas, my eventual plan is to move to a Rust Belt city in order to get into the game. My ideal plan is to have roughly 40K saved up (with a partner) by the end of the year to the point where we can hopefully househack in the one of the following markets: Detroit, Cleveland, Columbus, and Toledo. Our strategy would be to live in the property until we have our legs underneath and then slowly expand into more properties in the area/region. I would love to build my network in these areas and hear any insight or tips of getting started. 

Heres to escaping the 9-5 grind!

Got my first house hack at 23 in the Cleveland area. Lived for free in a great neighborhood. Congrats on starting early!
