Am I the first newbie from the UK?!

[David Clinton]

That would be a pretty cool accolade I must say :D

Hey everyone i'm Dave, 25 year old Business Consultant for a Financial Software provider.

I'm based in the UK and am at the bottom of the real estate ladder - hence, I have not yet invested anything and am in the learning process. I do know a fair bit about Mortgages & Investment Banking as a result of my job - I do actually trade stocks & shares - but I am trying to up my knowledge of Real Estate as an income stream. (any recommended reading would be welcomed with open arms!)

I also founded a record label in 2012 which has started seeing interest from the likes of Virgin EMI and Universal Music. I also DJ in my spare time.

So....who has the best Real Estate investment story...?
