New...In North Georiga

[Carrie Bostek]

Hi,

I have just been through turning my life upside down and inside out.  I thought I would shake it up a bit more.   Having to look for a new place to live for my family got my wheels turning...they are always doing that.  So Instead of looking for a single family home....yep you know where this is going.  I started looking for a place we can live along with a rental.  Weather its two homes on one piece of land, or a finished basement with a separate entrance...im looing at it. 

One thing led to another while surfing for information on REI, and I wound up here...a pretty good place to wind up I might add.

Thanks for listening

Carrie

Welcome to Biggerpockets!

You found the place to be! You will find no better place to build a solid platform than bigger pockets. The one thing we all agree up on is that we invest in real estate. Beyond that everyone has a different niche! 

Getting started as a personal property is a great way to get your foot in the door! That is how we got started 3 years ago! It is a great way. 

We are buy and hold investors who invest in class A properties self-managing from a distance while working full time. So we do work on furthering our careers. We live very frugally allowing us to live off of one income and save the other. We have further our career and used the W2 income to leverage our real estate portfolio.

I highly recommend you also check out- the blogs, forums and listen to the podcasts. If you see a post you enjoy check out the persons signature. As many of us have created resources around our niche (websites, blogs, etc) so checking out the signature is a great to get more information. Make sure you don't miss out on networking is by filling out your signature, profile and pming people with questions.

Look forward to seeing you around! Let me know if I can help! Good luck!!!
