Chris, from Birmingham, Alabama starting a long term plan.

[Chris Elliott]

I am a freelance graphic designer and need to build a retirement plan from scratch. I have a knack for renovating properties and an interest in real estate investing in general. I hope to start purchasing rental property as part of a long term retirement plan. I guess this is the first step.
