RE Newbie. Vagabond in Detroit

What's up BP? My name is Zack and I'm completely new to the world of real estate. I'm a former college athlete and I've spent most of the last 6 years traveling and living as cheaply as possible. Just started teaching in charter schools throughout Detroit and I've realized that if I want to continue my current lifestyle or being able to jump on a plane at a moments notice, I may need to start making some passive income. 

I've worked with a startup in San Diego and I've coached American football in Knoxville, TN and Grenoble, France. I've lived in several other cities for short stints and just moved to Detroit less than 2 months ago. Fast forward to my current obsession with the BP podcasts and my ever growing obsession with reading (I consider myself a writer more than anything), and I'm reading to jump into real estate. And when I say jump in, I mean building relationships, connecting, and continuously learning through BP. For the short-term, I'm interested in multi-family properties (and a good book).

Looking forward to learning from everyone here!

Peace and love
