Hi Everybody,

My name is Jelani Tate (picture coming soon) and I am new member to BiggerPockets. I signed up after a friend mentioned this is a fantastic site to learn about real estate investing.

As I stated, I am new to real estate investing, but I am ready to soak up information on how to get started, how to build a real estate investing roadmap, and generate wealth.

My goals are to build a portfolio to help my family achieve independence from the typical "8-to-6" job and learn techniques that are successful and repeatable.

One principle that I have learned in my early learning is that this will take time and effort. I am not looking to get rich overnight, but rather get wealthy over time.

Thank you to all for your welcoming responses and advice. I look forward to many more discussions.
