Greenhorn Real Estate Investor in Chicago
I graduated from college a few years ago. I have worked in the medical field, the health insurance industry, and most recently the automotive industry. When I found BiggerPockets, the idea of achieving financial freedom through real estate investing and escaping the 9-5 office grind, I was interested.
I'm looking to network with individuals in the Chicago area, and learn as much as I can about real estate investing so that I can get off to a quick start. Very interested as to what BiggerPockets will bring.

Hi Nick! Welcome to the BP community! Congrats on taking action and working towards your financial independence! Recently I've headed a group of Chicago BP investors that go out every Saturday to view properties and make offers using no money down lines of credit. I have documented our experiences in the investor deal Diaries forum under the name project BP. We have a lot of fun learning about properties and taking action! Please check out the links below and leave a contact number if interested.
