Hi all,

Its great to be here finally.

I have been listening to the podcasts for the past few months (while I renovate houses), and when I heard that Julie Broad was signed on here, I had to join ASAP.  If you haven't read her book, do it.  She doesn't pull any punches about the "real" real estate game.

I live in Cranbrook BC Canada.  In the heart of the Kootenay mountains.  Population 20,000, diverse economy, blue collar retirement area, tons of cash flow deals, 1.8% vacancy rate and dropping (CMHC Apr 2015).

I am 36 years old, have a wife and a baby girl, bought my first rental 12 years ago. We Currently own a 3-plex, 4-plex, student house (6 rooms) and our primary residence. I have a buy and hold mentality and love the BRRRR strategy. Have a diploma in Urban Land Economics from UBC specializing in property development, and I am slowly working at a business degree in real estate from TRU.

I look forward to connecting with like minded people and learning from all the great minds that are here.

Greg
