Newbie here who doesn't quite know the best path
Hey everyone! I'm Brad and I live in Chicago and hoping to get started with real estate and a path to financial freedom.
Currently, I work a sales job I don't love with a long commute which is my motivation for trying to find a new path with investing and real estate. My wife gets to travel for a living and I'd love to have the freedom to join her while working from anywhere.
My first goal is getting to leave the 9-5 and see what happens from there. We do have some savings but not as much as I'd like, that's for sure.
I'm currently interested in a lot of different areas and probably need to figure out the best place to start. Multifamily, out of state, mobile home parks, storage.
Would love any advice to help me find my way and can't wait to meet you all.
