Hello, I'm a Software Engineer and Options Trader, I first got into investing about three years ago when I started learning how to trade options.  I have zero experience with real estate investing.  I first became interested in real estate after joining www.financialmentor.com.  I learned how there are three investment vehicles for building wealth paper assets, real estate, and small business.  But that real estate and small business are the only vehicles that can be used to create wealth beyond what you already have.  

After reading this I googled real estate investing, which lead me to BP.  After reading my first article by Brandon Turner, The Top 100 Ways to Make Money in Real Estate.  I joined the site and I've been hooked since, reading different blogs and posts.  I just finished reading the BP's Ultimate Beginners Guide and am excited to start reading the remaining BP's books.

My main goal with real estate investing is to create financial freedom. The strategies I'm interested in are BRRRR, buy and hold, and wholesaling. I'm also interested in getting into note investing in the future.

I'm also a member of the local real estate group MCREIA.
