Newbie Investor Looking To Network & Learn

[Alec Esenther]

Hello Everyone, I am currently based in Oconomowoc WI and I plan to invest in Oconomowoc, Watertown, and the surrounding areas. This year (hopefully), I plan to purchase a single family home and turn it into a duplex, in which I will house hack! The first time I became interested in real estate investing was when I worked for a real estate investor as a carpenter/laborer while attending college.

After becoming an avid listener to the BiggerPockets podcast and reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad, I realized acquiring assets and diversifying income sources is the key to financial freedom. I'm currently working as an independent insurance agent and saving up as much as possible for my down payment. I'm looking to connect with like minded people and I'm eager to soak up as much knowledge as possible!
