Hello there folks, Michel Medee from Miami FL here. I'm 27 years of age and have recently developed in interest in multifamily real estate investing. After a two year hiatus from working, I've come to understand the desirability of owning real estate. Along with how having something that can supplement my main source of income, even if just slightly, can be a life saver. I currently have a good deal of leeway, for now at least, of where my money can go.

Knowing full well that my lack of recent work history and savings would make it very difficult to get any sort of funding, I thought I may as well starting learning as much as I can. I have about a year and a half till I have proof of stable income for two years, a few more till I have enough savings to feel safe investing.

In my search to learn more I stumbled my way to BiggerPockets's youtube channel and then finally to here. In the years while I'm here I hope you'll take care of me while I learn my way around real estate investing and this wonderful community.
