Hi everybody,

Just want to say thank you for having such a great site. I have learned so much in the past couple of months since finding Bigger Pockets.

I am new to real estate investing. After listening to every single BP podcast and spending a lot of time on this site over the past couple of months, I became inspired and realized that I can do this. My dream is to eventually become financially independent from monthly income generated by a portfolio of rental properties. I currently don't own any properties, but have been researching properties in various markets across the US with the intent to buy in the next six months.

My goal is to aquire a portfolio of ten rental properties within the next five years. Each property will generate at least $200 per month cash flow for a total monthly income of $2000.

I still have so many questions and obviously have a lot to learn, so I am very happy to have found the forums here where I know people are willing to help newbies like me. Thanks again!
