L/L Tenant Lawyer Living in NYC

[Tae Young Lee]

Hi everyone,

My name is Tae and I'm a recent law school graduate practicing landlord/tenant law in Brooklyn. I've come to the realization that there is only so much I can do to obtain financial freedom working in my field, and would like to try my hand at real estate. As a former U.S. soldier, I'm currently in the process of applying for a VA Home Loan. My aim is to purchase a multi-family unit where I would live, but could also rent out. I'm a total newbie to the real estate world, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
