Hi Everyone, I am a recent first time real estate investor with a partner. Last year we purchased a SFH in the Hudson Valley and now rent it out to college kids (possibly crazy but exactly what we wanted). We did a ton of research before making our purchase but of course we are learning a lot as we go. So far I love it and we are hoping to buy another one in the next few months. I hope to make this my full time job at some point. Bigger pockets was a great resource and now that I'm actually in the game I'm finding it an even better resource. Hope to learn a lot more so I can get to my goal of working for myself soon!

@Carl C.  - Welcome and congrats on getting into the game!  @Joe Fairless is in your area and has made the leap to fulltime investing.  I would highly suggest getting to know colleagues like him and others in NYC - local meet ups are great!
