New Member from Northern California

[Andrea Stewart]

Hi all! I landed here after researching "investing in real estate," and the inevitable rabbit-hole eventually led to biggerpockets.com. I live in Northern CA with my husband, we've paid off our mortgage, and we recently saved up a decent down payment for another property.

I work for the State government by day, and am an author by night. My husband also works for the State, and runs a blog on sustainability in the suburbs (we grow and produce much of our own food on a small lot).

I'm interested mostly in buy and hold, and have just started browsing different markets. My end goal is to own multiple properties with decent cash flow and to ultimately see how early I can retire.

Nice to "meet" you!

@Andrea Stewart @Dylan Vargas @Sergey Tkachev  Yes, my regular meeting was last night with just over 100 people.  Our next meeting, "Unlimited Money Crowd Funding Gone Crazy!" is going to be September 6th.  It can be found on meetup.com by searching for "Roseville Real Estate Investing". Last night over 40 of the group members were also members here on Bigger Pockets.  I will be at the SF Bay Summit, and may be doing some speaking.  Working on that with @J. Martin
