Hi All! My name is Johnny and I recently joined the Bigger Pockets site after weeks of listening to the BP Podcast! 

I'm originally from Cincinnati, OH and moved to Los Angeles about 5 years ago.  I had been working in the Music Industry for the past five years, but after getting married in October 2015 I realized that the Music Industry is a single man's game and I decided I wanted to transition into a different career. I have decided that working in the Real Estate industry would enable me to provide for my family while also doing something that was exciting, profitable, and that I could rely on my own sweat equity to be successful! I've completed my Real Estate Salesperson classes and am now waiting on the California BRE to approve my application for the state exam to get my RE License.  

My primary goal at the moment is to become an Agent in Los Angeles in order to gain access to the MLS and begin learning more about the market. Secondary goals include beginning to purchase and rehab 1-4 unit rental properties to either flip or to hold as income properties.
