Greetings from Barrie, Ontario
Hello, I am a young man from Barrie and looking to get my foot in the door in this industry. I've already had the pleasure of checking out some of the online courses and podcasts from this website. Looking forward to reading some books and networking with other members.
Very interested in every aspect of real estate, from flipping to investing. My goal is to become my own boss and eventually become financially free so I can retire early and live outside the rat-race.
No real experience in real estate, but I've never been one to shy away from something new or a challenge. Constantly learning, and willing to take any and all advice from this wonderful community.

If you are an open book, it looks like this thread just filled up with local authors! Start buying lunches!
