Hello! - New from Louisiana

Hello All,

My name is Kyle Coleman and I found this site while working with a colleague and the topic of rental properties came up.  He told me about BP and I've been lurking for a few weeks getting an idea of whats going on.  It appears to be a wealth of information and I'm happy to be a part of it.

My family (parents) had a relatively small yet profitable involvement in rental properties during my teen years in which I helped out a lot with.  I will eventually have to inherit all of the properties that they own (unless they liquidate); so I decided that I might as well get a jump on the ball and start investing my own money into units.  That being said; my niche is pretty much decided in that I will continue down the path of buy and hold to rent. 

I currently work in the Information Technology field as a primary source of income which I assume I will continue to do for quite some time.  I like what I do but I want to add to my cash-flow and start putting my money where it will benefit me in the long run.  I recently purchased my own home which chewed up a good bit of my reserves.  I am currently saving back up and intend to start actively looking for my first buy and hold unit very soon.

I look forward to speaking with any and all of you in the future.

Thanks for reading,

Kyle
