Hello all,

To keep it short and concise:

  1. My name is Alex
  2. I'm originally from Wisconsin and educated in DC
  3. I moved to the OC (from DC) and lived here 3.5 years
  4. I'm an IT professional
  5. I have never bought or owned any property before, so I'm new to the terminology and concepts of property investing
  6. I'm looking to learn from knowledgeable and experienced investors to provide some insight into cash flow properties and how to continuously purchase properties to supplement and, eventually/potentially, match/exceed my current income

Other than that, I work full-time and am pursuing another degree.  I will have a sizeable amount to start my investing by year-end, so I'm looking to gather knowledge in the interim to make my first calculated and prudent investment(s), within a year.

Thanks all and great to be here!  :)

Alex Tam Welcome to BP. There is a local meetup in Lake forest every month that you should check out. http://meetu.ps/2QWCkh

If you would like to meet up before then and talk about investing let me know. I am in Mission Viejo and can meet at a Starbucks.

I just finished purchasing my next project at the court house steps and I am working on a few more.
