Newbie from Michigan

[Kimberly Allen]

Hello

My name is Kimberly Allen I live in Ypsilanti. I was force into being a landlord because I could not sell my parents home after they both passed away and that was the beginning of my real estate investing career. In 2012 I bought my first property and since then I have acquired 6 more. I still consider myself a newbie and there is a lot I can learn you from all of you an maybe I can be helpful to others.
