Hi BP community,

My name is Todd English, I'm a father of 3. Have a successful full-time day job outside of real estate. I'm a new real estate investor having bought my first rental property last Fall.

My first "rental" was purchased as my first home that I later became a landlord out of necessity since I couldn't sell it for enough without having to bring cash to close. I have just recently bought my first investment property that its sole purpose is to be a long term rental.

I'm hoping to add to my rental property portfolio. Ideally, I'd like to add 1 or 2 properties per year.  I've been reading others stories here on BP and thought I should join and contribute my ups and downs as well.  Peer learning is a great way to go. 

I'm interested in long term buy hold rentals. I'm actively searching for my next property!  The market is sizzling here and I'm having a challenging time finding opportunities that will pencil for me.
