Driven senior college student from Montana

[Carlin Andersen]

Hi

My name is Carlin Andersen (25 years old)

I have recently become interested in real estate investing, and I'm looking to engage myself in a social network of like-minded people!

I am currently a student at the University of Montana -- where I have about another year (2016) before I receive my undergraduate degree. 

The bigger pocket community seems extremely active, and I have already learned so much from both the community and Brandon's videos! 

I am wanting to further my real estate education, and learn about good first-time-investor markets/properties, so that I can jump on a deal as soon as I enter the "real world" after my education. 

Please excuse me if my real estate terminology is weak, as I am still a newbie. However, I definitely feel driven to make it as a real estate investor, and have been researching and gathering as much information as I have time for.

My goal is to establish a portfolio of around 35-45 units and hopefully generate enough passive income to where I can comfortably enjoy my life, independent of 9-5 work commitments. Although this is a common statement, I have recently committed myself to achieving this goal, and believe it is a very realistic, and attainable one. 

Any contact/help/tips would be awesome, as I look forward to meeting people and to start establishing a network in the community!  :)

Thanks!
