Hello everyone,

My name is Jeff Wagner and I'm from Milwaukee, WI. I work in the commercial construction industry and have been in and out of resdiential investment real estate over the past 22 years. I was completely out during the downturn but have begun to rebuild an investment portfolio to accelerate my retirement from the "day job". I love learning and am constantly looking for good books, podcasts, etc. related to real estate. That's how I found Bigger Pockets. I'm not only hoping to learn here but to also build and expand my network whether that be local or out of area.

Thanks for reading my post.
