Hi Everyone,

My name is Ripple Shah and I'm in the process of buying my first rental property.  I'm 36 years old and have been working in Finance IT for the past 12 years.  I have been getting guidance from a family friend whose also a real estate agent on buying rental properties.  As I need more knowledge about investing in real estate properties, I've started reading Brandon Turner's book: The Book on Rental Property Investing: How to Create Wealth and Passive Income Through Smart Buy & Hold Real Estate Investing.  And that's also how I came across the BiggerPockets website.
