Chicago, Illinois investor looking to network/build a portfolio
Hi BiggerPockets,
I'm an attorney who is somewhat new to the nuts and bolts of real estate investing (it's been 2 years since I got dropped in the deep end), but I've been exposed to it my whole life. My father and I spent many summer days rehabbing and doing repairs on the few rental units that my parents owned. I currently own a handful of doors in rural northern California (where I grew up), but I am looking to expand my portfolio a little bit closer to where I have settled down, here in Chicago.
I'm looking forward to learning a lot from the forums, the podcasts, and the webinars, along with building my network!
