New Investor in Gettysburg PA
Greeting to the BP community
My name is Jackie Lin. I have been investing in real estate for 8 years now. I feel like I have done so little compared to the guests on the BiggerPockets podcast. Lol. But I guess I am just slow and steady.
I got into real estate while in college when I was introduced to the rich dad poor dad series, so during my last year of college I bought a four residential rental unit with one store front building, which I planned to have a restaurant in and rent the four units out to pay for all of the expenses related to the property. So I guess I was sort of hacking the building for my restaurant.
From my first unit and the income from my business, I have been able to acquire and payoff four more SFR, one duplex and one commercial unit.
I am now in a comfortable area where I have the ability to acquire more doors.
I am planning for the long haul, I am focus on buy and hold rental units in the south central Pennsylvania but is open minded to expand my horizon. I am not biased against any type of real estate as long as I can get a good deal on it and have a good ROI.
I am here to introduce myself to this great community. I have been silent for the last three months learning from all of the experts here. This is the best place to gain a plethora knowledge of real estate.
If there is anyone here that would like to connect and talk about anything, let’s connect and learn from each other and grow together!
