After Listening to BP Podcast for over a year I think it's time to take my first step
Hello Bigger Pockets Community! My name is Rolando De La Cruz and I live in Texas. After listening to the podcast for over a year and finally graduating from college with no debt, I think it is time to take my first step into buying my first property by the end of 2024! I intend to house hack for my first deal and slowly build up my portfolio as I keep working as a Project Engineer for a multifamily construction company in Austin. When the time is right and I have more experience investing and a bigger network my goal is to flip houses on a more regularly.
Excited to learn and connect with you all and glad to help in any way that I can!
