Newbie from Calgary, Alberta
Originally from east-coast Canada, currently residing in Calgary, Alberta.
My wife and I each have good day jobs, and not much real estate "investing" experience.
- We have a 3bed, 2.5 bath townhouse,
- 50% partners on a rental property (1bed condo in Calgary)
Goals right now are to continue saving some money, and hopefully add another condo to the portfolio in the next 1-2yrs. Right now strategy is to buy/hold and shoot for monthly income.
Long-term I'd like to get into multi-family units outside of Calgary (crazy expensive), maybe the USA, likely back in eastern Canada where things are much cheaper.
Joined bigger pockets because for someone with a rental property I really don't know as much as I should; and I'd like to learn how to grow our portfolio.
