New Member - Atlanta, GA
Hi Everyone! I recently joined Bigger Pockets! I grew up in Long Island, New York and moved to Atlanta, GA for work a few years ago. I work as a CPA at one of the large accounting firms in the area.
I've been interested in real estate for as long as I can remember. The flexibility, wealth-building opportunities, and entrepreneurial element have always been appealing to me. In the next year, I would like to purchase my first property (ideally, a single-family or duplex). We'll see how it goes from there!
When I am not working (or learning about RE) I enjoy CrossFit, golf, tennis, surfing, boating, and traveling.
That's about it! I look forward to meeting experienced investors and other members that are in a similar situation to myself.
