Teach me, my brain is a sponge - Madison, WI

[Zach Chappell]

Hello all!

Greetings from Zach Chappell, a novice investor from Madison, WI. I am a UW-Madison graduate in my late twenties who has been cultivating an interest in real estate investing for a couple of years, but has yet to do a first deal. At this point I have a good idea of the investment strategy I want to pursue, and a pretty healthy down payment ready to go.

I am interested in cash-flow properties, and more specifically, in what has been coined "hybrid" real estate investment. This strikes me as, on the continuum of risk, a happy medium between house flipping and pure cash flow properties.

Naturally, I started by studying my local market, Madison. However, I have been hard pressed to find a multifamily that even approaches the 2% rule - most properties on the market will leave you breaking even or in the red at the end of the month. I am very keen on learning more about the Milwaukee market.

I am eager learn, network, and grow in knowledge and experience. Please contact me in you are a WI investor that would like to chat, or anyone that can offer good advice to an aspiring investor.

Best regards,
