Newbie Recent Pharmacist Graduate in Orange County California

[THANG BUI]

Hello everyone!

My name is Michael and it's great to see such a large community of RE investors here. I have been reading and listening to podcasts to learn as much as possible.

I am a pharmacist but I plan on retiring through the use of Buy and Hold rental income. Unfortunately, I currently owe 6 figures in loans.

My mom turned my eye toward RE because she currently owns a house and 8 unit townhomes in SoCal. She will have paid off the mortgage of her house and 4 of the units within 3-4 years and we plan on going BIGGER. 

For my first purchase, I was thinking of a 4-unit multifamily. I'm debating on whether or not I will live in it or just rent out all 4-units. I currently live at home with my parents.
