Brett Sheeran - New Member Introduction
Hello Bigger Pockets community. My name is Brett Sheeran. I live in Arlington, VA. I'm an aspiring investor and looking to acquire my first investment property. Ideally this would be a multi-family property that I can live in and rent out the other units. Looking forward to networking and potentially working with this amazing community!

Hi Brett, and welcome to the BiggerPockets community!
House-hacking with a multi-family property is a fantastic way to get started—it’s one of the best strategies for learning the ropes of property management while generating income right from the start. Being in Arlington, you’re in a prime area for finding multi-family units with strong rental demand, so you’re in a great position to make this work.
We’re excited to have you here and look forward to hearing more about your journey! Don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or to share updates. Wishing you the best as you dive into your first investment!
