Excited to Start My Real Estate Journey with BiggerPockets!

[Hector Rosario]

Hi all,

I’m excited to finally engage more with the BiggerPockets community! I discovered BP about 3-4 months ago after reading Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner. Since then, I’ve been listening to BiggerPockets, On The Market, and Real Estate Rookie, and I’m currently reading The Multifamily Millionaire by Brandon Turner.

A bit about myself:

I'm a 31-year-old software engineer looking to become a long-term multifamily real estate investor (REI) and achieve FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early). I want to spend more time with family while growing my portfolio. Currently, I'm working on clearing my debt and saving as much as possible, with plans to start my journey by house hacking with my partner. While I'm based in California, I'm looking to begin house hacking a duplex, triplex, or quadplex in Houston, Texas, and build from there.

I’m looking forward to continuing to learn, becoming a property owner, and taking full control of my time and life to eventually quit my 9-to-5. I’m excited to make connections along the way!

Thanks for reading.

Best regards,
Hector Rosario
