Hi everyone,

What a great site! I was doing web searches on real estate investing this past weekend and seemed like all the good advice was coming out of the forums here.

Reason for joining the site is that I am interested in learning more about buy and hold residential rental properties.  I have always wanted to be a real estate investor, but now that I am within a few years of retirement from my first career, I think its about time I get serious about it.... and hopefully I will have found my second career.

Other areas I'll be interested in learning more about are becoming licensed... I just started an online course and have a broker who will sponsor me ...... and more about the tax implications of REI income.

Looking forward to connecting with like-minded members!

Regards, Tim Yearout
