New member from Milwaukee
My name is Carlton I was born in Milwaukee, but I attended school in South. I am currently a resident of the city of Milwaukee, and I am also employed by the local government as programmer. A few years ago I got the real estate bug, and bought my first duplex a 3/2 about a mile from my residence.
After completing my first deal I enrolled at the local technical college so I can begin the process of acquiring my real estate license. While taking real estate law 101 I purchased my second duplex a 3/3 again within a mile of my residence. This was a foreclosure and a fixer upper, but it was a good deal. I’m currently enrolled in my second real estate class, and will be taking my real estate exam when I finish. I’m also on the hunt for other investment properties or other investment vehicles that make sense and dollars. I hope I can contribute to the BP community and help make the site even better.
Thanks
