New Member orignally from Chicago / living in Manhattan Beach, CA
Hello all,
Yesterday, during my (nearly) daily quest for a free online RE education, I stumbled upon the BP podcast and website I was so impressed by the community that I immediately joined. With two income producing rental condos in Chicago I am still a small time investor, but my goal is to double my portfolio cash flow in the next two years. As a Finance Consultant living in Manhattan Beach, CA, most of my time is spent on the road, but my roots are in Chicago.
I am excited to learn from you all and hope that BP can help me achieve my short term and long term financial goals.
John-Paul
