Hello Everyone my name is Dustin, I live in a small town about an hr or so northeast of Minneapolis/StPaul MN on the WI side with my wife and kid/s. I have been lurking and learning here a long time so I figured it was time to join and participate. I have interests in long term buy and hold, and also Note investing.  I think I have come up with a solid strategy given my crazy work schedule. "40-60 hrs on third shift"

My plan is to pay off my primary in about 2 years give or take, While I'm doing that build a Note portfolio. Then once my primary is paid for then I can use that increased cash flow and equity to purchase buy and holds and more notes. I would probably end up using property management because the idea of tenants is a reason I have put off buy and hold for a while. Given my unique schedule my plan is to manage the accounts, and manage the managers for a couple hrs when I get home, Then sleep, wake up, family time, head to work, rinse and repeat. Hopefully keeping "emergency" daytime phone calls to a minimum.

Thank you so much for your time and knowledge, maybe one day when I am more experienced I will be able to be of some help. I look forward to interacting with all of you instead of just hiding in the shadows. Happy investing everyone.
