Greeting BiggerPockets Community!

Hello to everyone,

I'm just starting to research real estate as a possible flow of income, mainly for when I retire.  I have no experience whatsoever in the industry so I have a lot to learn and can tell it's going to be overwhelming in the beginning.  I currently am planning on starting with multi-family homes. Buying one, living on one floor and renting out the others.  I'm in no hurry to get rich quick, rather I want to do it right from the start and hopefully reap the benefits in 10-15 years.

I can tell I'm going to be coming to this site often looking for advice from everyone here so thanks in advance for that.

Hello again and I look forward to getting to know everyone better,

Tim Coppola

Welcome to the site. I recommend listening to the podcasts that BP has. Full of information and still relevant. Good luck
