26th Birthday - First Rent Payment Received

Derek Luttrell

Morning Everyone, 

Well, I guess you can sort of count the rent I've been getting from my roommates while house hacking over the past 8 months, but this morning is my 26th birthday and I woke up to the Chase Quickpay rent payment from my tenant at my first true investment property. 

He moves in this afternoon, and I'm meeting up with him to hand over the keys. 

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone on here who has helped answer my questions and address my concerns along the way. Pre-approval in hand, I have an appointment for tomorrow to go see what might be my third property. I've caught the bug--my goal is to have 10 properties and/or $4,000 in cash flow by age 30. 

Thanks again, 

- Derek
