Hi Everyone,

I thought I'd reach out and introduce myself to the community. I'm a software engineer at PayPal. I just finished reading Long Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene and it spoke a lot about Bigger Pockets. I'm now reading The Book on Rental Property Investing. I got into this through my friend Thien and wanted to start building some cash flow by investing out of state. However it doesn't make a lot of sense as I am still bleeding from paying rent every month here in San Jose (60,000 in rent last 2 years). So I'm looking at possibly getting into a multi family or a home with many bedrooms to lower that expense and start building towards an asset. 

I am currently working with my friend Ames Sabello and her business partner Brian Kelly, I also have a great lender Kevin Edwards. I'm excited to be here and really excited to be starting this journey with all of you :)

Best,
Chris
