New young investor from Toledo, Ohio.

[Chris C.]

Hey all, I'm new to this site and, perhaps, a future landlord.

My end goal is to be able to have a decent income from renting out alone, I'm not here looking to have over $50,000 income annually within 2 years, but I am looking to have a goal minimum of at least $20,000 income annually by 5 years, hopefully more.

That said though, I've little to no idea as to how to begin. Doing research right now, but I've still only barely scratched the surface of this. In fact I'm trying to find a veteran real estate investor near my area ( Toledo, Ohio ) that I can perhaps be an assistant of or intern at some place. As right now, I work full time making sushi for a restaurant near Toledo.

Now, I hope to learn a lot from the people here :)

Hi Chris, welcome to BP. I've been a full time investor in Toledo since 2005. My main focus is apartments. That focus changes and evolves as the market changes over time. I've done flips, wholesales, rental houses and apartments. Each of those areas has been my focus at one time in my career.

Feel free to give me a call with any questions. I love to help!
