Hi from Southern Maine!

Hello all. My name is Timothy Swenton. I started my interest in real estate investing about years ago while doing some goal and future thinking. Within the last few months I really dived head first into reading and educating myself daily on real estate. Brandon's book on rental property's was recommended to me by a friend (Garrett Hayes) who is also on here and from southern Maine. He just closed on his first multi unit home for a great deal! I plan to do the same within a year!! 

I currently just opened/acquired a local hobby shop that I have been going to since I was a kid. My true passion is trains and I have made something out of myself in the hobby with custom painting, weathering etc. Taking over my old mentors business has been a blessing and I am excited to carry his legacy on while building my own.

On the side however, ive always wanted to invest in other places. I figured real estate was the place to start for me. Some day hopefully ill invest or start other businesses as well once I get the hobby shop self maintained.

My biggest passions for pursuing my own businesses and investments are financial freedom. I truly have the goal of becoming financially free by 35( I am currently 22).

Anyway thanks in advance for all the help I will receive here. I LOVE learning and I am fascinated by real estate investing. Cant wait to see what the future has in store!

-Tim
