Midlife Newbie - Just recently discovered Biggerpockets

[Srini Rajamani]

Hi Everyone
I am a newbie to the world of real estate investing.  My knowledge and subsequent track record has been one of basically following the wagon of friends and family(which as you can imagine has turned out to be a disaster).  Only recently discovered BiggerPockets and other fantastic resources available.  I look forward to learning from the veterans here....

My interest is mainly in STR and LTR investments with the goal of eventually replacing the income from a tech job i left recently...
