Hello BP nation,

I'm Matt Schambeau.  I live just north of Atlanta in the Roswell area.  I currently work full time as the VP of Operations at a staffing company, and I'm studding real estate investing because I want to start building some assets in the form of buy and holds (single or multifamily) while continuing my current employment.  I'm 39 and my goal for the year is to start working towards financial freedom.  I've listened to about 45 BP podcast and have read Rich Dad, Poor Dad.  I just started the Millionaire real estate investor and it is all I can think about.  I'm really excited to start this new chapter in my life...and I'm taking the advise of Brandon and Josh to introduce myself on the forum as well as say thank you for building BP!!!

Welcome @Matt Schambeau,

It sounds like you are in the exact path I was in when I first started in real estate. I jumped on the podcasts immediately, read Rich Dad Poor Dad and the UBG on BP, started networking and I was on my way. 

I'm getting ready to write my 1 year post this month which entails of 1 SFR and a 19 unit apartment complex and I honestly couldn't have done it without the BP family.

So you are in a great place to network and learn ANYTHING imaginable about real estate. If I can be of any assistance, please let me know as I'm not to far. I reside in Lawrenceville, Ga but I do all my investing in Macon, GA for the time being.

Best of Luck!

Curtis
