Young dude just trying to find his way
Hi!
I've been floating around the forums for some time but I guess I should put out an official introduction!
New 25 year old investor from St.Louis, MO
Full time at Wells Fargo in the Mortgage backed securities market and just recently got into real estate late of last year. In December 2015, I bought my first rental property and rented it out within a couple days. I figured I would buy one property a year until I was a millionaire. In January, I made a new years resolution to own two rental properties in 2016. Shortly after, I closed my second rental and again, rented it out within a couple days. Found Bigger pockets and have been actively reading and researching....
Now I'm about to close on my third rental and looking at another couple to buy this summer! I've learned so much about the real estate market (a lot from bp) and I'm loving the challenge and the rewards that follow.
I've realized that the only limitation to being a great real estate investor is myself. That if I put in the sacrifice and work, I can do anything. Crazy to think just 5 months ago I was happy with one property a year and now I'm close to 4-5 in my first 6 months!
Hoping to work with some of you in the future and thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!
